Because turtles need quiet and stable mating, spawning, and normal living conditions, the turtle pool should be built in a quiet and open environment. The earth pool requires that the bottom soil is loam or sandy soil, does not leak, the water source is clean, there is no pollution, and drainage and irrigation are convenient. Now the requirements and construction method of the turtle pool are described as follows: The bottom soil and all around are soil, the environment is soft, and it can meet the living and breeding needs of the turtle. Around the pool, an anti-escape wall should be built, with a height of 0.5 meters or more. It is generally surrounded by bricks, cement boards, asbestos tiles, and wooden boards. The land and the pool are set in the pool and connected by gentle slopes. On the land, some plants can be planted to facilitate the hiding of the turtles and the heatstroke prevention. The pond is cultured with water lettuce to purify water, shade and cool down. The size of the pond should be adapted to local conditions, typically 500 to 1,000 square meters, with a pool depth of 0.8 to 1.3 meters, and a 20 to 30 centimeter thick silt reserved at the bottom of the pond for the wintering or latent summer. The shape of the pool is oblong in shape to facilitate the acceptance of more sunlight. There is a spawning ground on one side of the pool, with a width of 1 to 2 meters and a length of 80% of the length of the turtle pool. The specific area is calculated as 0.05 square meters for each turtle. Spawning sites require 20-30 cm thick sediment. During the spawning season, sand should be kept moist to facilitate egg production. Hanging above the spawning ground to cover the rain and sun to prevent the turtles from spawning on rainy days. The food platform uses planks of 10 to 60 centimeters wide to place a block of wood along one side or multilateral of the earthen pond along the slope. The length of each food table is 80% of the edge of the pool, and one third of the food table is immersed in water. Two-thirds of them are on land in order to feed bait on the board of land at the land-water junction, and as a guide for slopes from the water to the land.
