Before breeding the yellow-headed side-necked turtle, you need to prepare some necessary utensils. In addition to the container must be prepared, there are also some things that are more important. For example, the drying table can be placed in a container, and it can play a very important role. Although it is a terrapin, it is not a complete terrapin, which means it cannot stay in the water all the time. Some of their life activities can not be carried out in the water, for example, they need to use lungs to breathe, which requires them to contact the air above the surface to breathe. Therefore, the balcony can provide a platform for them to breathe.
With the sunning table, the yellow-headed side-necked turtle can climb to the top to rest, which can avoid staying in the water all the time and avoid skin rot and carapace rot. In addition, the yellow-headed side-neck turtle can not only climb up to rest, but also climb up to bask in the sun, which is very helpful to their health.
