1. Are the yellow-fronted closed-shell turtles protected animals The yellow-fronted closed-shell turtles belong to protected animals, which have been listed in the List of Terrestrial Wild Animals Protected by the State or of Important Economic and Scientific Research Value issued by the Forestry Bureau of China, and belong to the second-class protected animals in China. However, this protection is only for wild yellow-forehead closed-shell turtles. If they are artificially bred, they can be raised normally.
2. How to raise the yellow-forehead turtle1. Space: The yellow-forehead turtle is an aquatic turtle, and it needs a large activity space, so the breeder needs to prepare a large container for them. It is also necessary to build an amphibious living environment for them, so that they can choose their own living place.
2. Water quality: Yellow-forehead closed-shell turtle also has high requirements on water quality. Breeders usually need to clean up food residues and feces after feeding, and change water once every 2-3 days to ensure clean water quality.
3. Feeding: Although the yellow-forehead closed-shell turtle is an omnivorous turtle, it should be carefully selected when feeding food. It is necessary not only to ensure their adequate nutrition, but also to ensure their balanced nutrition. Usually, you can feed some small fish, shrimp, lean meat, animal viscera, etc., and then match some cabbage, apples, bananas, etc.
4. Water level: The water level of yellow-forehead closed-shell turtles should not be too high, because their swimming ability is poor, so breeders can choose to put them in shallow water about 5 cm to survive, or deepen the water level, but the maximum should not exceed two-thirds of the height of their carapace.
