How old can the star turtle grow and how long can it live

The star turtle is not too big. In adulthood, the length of their back armor is generally between 16-35 cm. Occasionally, there may be individuals with a back armor length of 38 cm, but generally speaking, this slightly larger star turtle is rare. This kind of turtle can be raised in captivity. The growth of cultured species is affected by many factors, such as space, feeding and so on. If carefully raised, the star turtle will be larger. 1、 How big can star turtle grow? Star turtle is a turtle variety that can be raised in captivity. Before breeding them, you can know their body shape. The star turtle is not too big. In adulthood, the length of their back armor is generally between 16-35 cm. Occasionally, there are larger star turtles. The length of the back armor can reach about 38 cm, but this larger turtle is not particularly common.

This kind of turtle can be raised in captivity, but its size will be different from that of wild species. For captive star turtle species, their body size is affected by the surrounding environment and feeding. For example, whether there is enough space has a great impact on the body shape of star turtles. If they want to develop better, they need to choose a larger container for their activities. In addition, feeding has a great impact on their body size. In order to make them bigger, we need to choose more nutritious food to feed them. 2、 How long can star turtles live? Generally speaking, the life span of star turtles is about 50 years. The life span of star turtles living in the wild will be slightly longer. If the environment is suitable, their life span can basically reach 50 years or even more. If they are raised in captivity, their life span will be relatively short, about 30-50 years.

Whether wild varieties or artificially bred varieties, their life span will be affected by the surrounding environmental factors. If the environment is more suitable, they will live longer. If the environment is bad, it will not only shorten their life span, but may even lead to their direct death. (XingGuiNengChangDuoDa,NengHuoDuoJiu)
