Common snake-necked turtles are not protected animals, and they have a large number of reproduction and quantity, which is also a common turtle species. Only the snake-necked turtle population originating in Ghana can be regarded as a protected animal. They have been listed in the appendix of the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora, and individuals cannot kill or trade them.

Snake-necked turtle is a kind of turtle that is easy to raise, because it has strong adaptability to the environment, and it can survive without special care when it is farmed artificially. Moreover, environmental discomfort will not have much impact on their health and growth status, but breeders cannot keep the environment in a poor state for a long time. In addition, they are omnivorous animals, which can eat many kinds of food and are relatively simple to feed, so in summary, their feeding difficulty is relatively low.

Although it is not difficult to raise snake-necked turtles, in order to make them develop better, breeders should also pay attention to the comfortable surrounding environment. It is best to provide them with proper water temperature and clean water quality, and ensure that the food fed is nutritious enough.

Furthermore, they are sensitive to the environment in their infancy, so breeders should pay attention to environmental stability. But also pay attention to the water level not too deep.
