can the tortoise grow? The size of the tortoise of different sexes is different. Generally, the size of the female tortoise is larger. The length of the carapace of the female tortoise can reach about 25 centimeters, the width can reach about 18-20 centimeters, the height can reach 10 centimeters, and the weight can reach 4-5 kilograms. The size of the male turtle is relatively small, generally the carapace can only grow to about 20 centimeters, the width is about 15 centimeters, the height is 8-10 centimeters, and the weight is about 0.5-1 kilograms.
This size is only a rough figure, depending on the specific feeding environment and feeding methods, if it is a wild turtle, it will be much smaller than the domestic turtle, because the food and nutrition in the wild are less, so the size is generally not too large, if the family feeding environment is more suitable, nutrition is also balanced. It is also possible for males to grow to the same size as females.
can the tortoises live? The tortoises raised by families can generally live for 20-30 years, so they will become adults in about 3-5 years. Because the food raised at home is more abundant and the nutrition is more comprehensive, it can promote their growth and development. The life span of wild turtles can reach 50 years, but it takes 7-10 years to mature. Because there is plenty of space in the wild, but there is less food and nutrition, their growth and development will be slow.
