The Brazilian yellow-eared turtle is a deep-water turtle. They mainly live in lakes, rivers and streams with dense vegetation in the wild and prefer deep water. Yellow-eared turtles are lively by nature, bold, like to interact with people, and have a good physique. They like to bask in the sun, so they need to build a special place for them to bask in the sun, or build a gentle slope, which is convenient for them to breathe, and allows them to rest and bask in the sun.
the Brazilian yellow-eared turtle? The water level required for different growth stages of the Brazilian yellow-eared turtle is also different. The following is a detailed introduction to the water level suitable for different stages:
1. Turtle seedlings: The Brazilian yellow-eared turtle is relatively fragile when it is young. So breeders can't give them too high a water level. First of all, if the water level is too deep, they will be exhausted on the way to ventilation, and secondly, too deep water will also cause pressure on them. Therefore, as long as the water level does not exceed the plastron in the period of young turtles.
2. Adult: The water level of the adult yellow-eared turtle can be relatively higher, and the height can be between 1.5 and 2 times of the height. Because the physical strength of adult yellow-eared turtles will increase, swimming up to breathe generally will not appear the problem of choking water.
