? The Brazilian tortoise can grow up. If the food is sufficient and the environment is suitable, the Brazilian tortoise can grow up to 30 centimeters. But their growth time is relatively long. The average newborn Brazilian tortoise is about the size of a coin. In the first 1-4 years after birth, they will grow at a rate of 3-5 centimeters per year. As long as the common Brazilian tortoise is properly raised, it can grow to the same size as the bowl mouth in 4-6 years, and its weight can reach 1-2 kilograms. But if the living conditions can not meet the requirements of Brazilian tortoises, or if the food is insufficient, they will miss the period of growth and development, then even after adulthood, their size will be smaller.
? Generally, the body shape of Brazilian tortoises will be fixed in 4-6 years, and even if they grow later, they will only grow slowly. Therefore, in the first four years of birth, Brazilian tortoises need to be carefully raised and strictly controlled in terms of water temperature, water quality and food. In the period of young turtles, they can choose to feed more small fish, shrimps, red worms, lean meat and other foods, so as to accelerate their growth. Breeders should also note that the growth rate of Brazilian tortoises will accelerate from June to August every year, so during this period, they can focus on controlling the living environment and balancing food to accelerate the growth and development of Brazilian tortoises.
