Yellow-eared turtles need to bask in their backs, because basking in the sun can accelerate their metabolism and speed up their growth and development. Sunlight can also kill bacteria on their carapace and skin, and promote them to synthesize calcium, phosphorus and other substances, making their carapace harder and their bodies stronger. Although they are water turtles, they regularly climb to the water to bask in the sun when they are in the wild, so it is best to prepare an amphibious environment for them when they are farmed artificially, so that they can climb up to bask in the sun.

Yellow-eared turtles need a balcony because they need to climb to the water regularly to bask in the sun. Build a balcony for them, which can not only let them bask in the sun, but also let them rest on it. Moreover, breeders can choose to feed food on the drying platform, which can slow down the deterioration of water quality.

Yellow-eared turtles have no high requirements on the material and shape of the balcony. Breeders can go to the store to buy a balcony for turtles, or build a balcony with Stone. At first, yellow-eared turtles may not climb up to bask in the sun. Breeders can put them on the drying table every day and let them adapt for a period of time. When they are familiar with this balcony, they will climb up and bask in the sun by themselves.
