The lines on the heads of hybrid yellow-eared turtles are continuous, and many colors are slightly red. Because most of them now cross with Brazilian red-eared turtles.

If it is a hybrid yellow-eared turtle, there are many black spots on the abdominal armor, and it is generally not symmetrical.
3. Look at the eyes: The eyes of pure yellow-eared turtles are yellow, and the eyes of hybrid yellow-eared turtles are light yellow or other colors.
