The choice of raising a turtle at home should take into account factors such as the turtle's size, habits, feeding requirements and available space. Here are some turtle species suitable for home breeding:


1. Russian Tortoise: They are smaller tortoises that are suitable for keeping indoors or outdoors. They have relatively low environmental requirements and are easy to care for.


2. Red-eared Slider: This is a common aquatic turtle species that is kept in a suitable aquarium. They require a relatively large area of water and land for them to bask in the sun and rest.


3. Yellow-bellied Slider: Similar to the red-eared slider, the yellow-bellied slider is also an aquatic turtle species. They are gentler and easy to care for. Sufficient water and land areas also need to be provided.


4. Box Turtle: This is a snake-necked turtle that mainly lives on land. They are relatively small and fun to keep outdoors. Providing appropriate habitat and food is important.


5. Indian Star Tortoise: The Indian Star Tortoise is a beautiful and small tortoise that is very suitable for keeping indoors. They require a warm and moist environment with appropriate nutritious food.


Before choosing any type of turtle, make sure you understand the species' needs and provide proper housing, food, and medical care. At the same time, local laws and guidelines must be followed to ensure legal breeding does not harm wildlife.
