The snake neck turtle is a very peculiar turtle. Its neck is very long. It is easy to distinguish it from other turtles. When they are in the juvenile stage, they are more sensitive to the environment and more susceptible to illness, so there are more matters needing attention in breeding. When their body length is less than 10 centimeters, they can be said to be in the juvenile stage, at this time to be carefully maintained.
The snake-necked turtle is a common terrapin. When raising them, they cannot be raised dry. They need to be raised in water. However, in their different growth stages, their water level requirements are different. If they are young, they do not like too high water level, shallow water is more appropriate, so that the water level is slightly below their back shell, deep water farming is not conducive to their health. Or you can make a slope with gravel in the container, which allows them to choose freely. When they grow up, they can be raised in deep water, and the snake neck turtle is also a kind of deep water turtle. Generally speaking, when their body length grows to more than ten centimeters, they can be raised in deep water.
However, although deep water can be used, the water level can not be too high, higher than part of their dorsal shell is possible, but not more than three times the height of their dorsal shell. This is because the snake neck turtle can not always stay in the water, but also need to properly let them out of the water to bask in the sun and so on, so if the water is too deep, they float to the surface is more troublesome.
