can money turtles live? The life span of money turtles is mostly between 30 and 80 years. They have a longer life span among ornamental turtles. And they still have dormant time, if you add dormant time, they can live for about 100 years. Money turtles are easier to take care of when they grow up, but they have weak resistance and are prone to illness when they are young. Breeders need to pay attention to them to avoid their illness and death or affect their health.
? Generally, money turtles can reproduce in about 3-7 years. The specific age of reproduction needs to be judged according to their sex and breeding methods. Female money turtles usually take longer to reach adulthood, about five to seven years. Male money turtles, on the other hand, mature in a shorter time, about 3-5 years.
Money turtles are not recommended to breed in the first year of maturity, because their sexual function is just mature at this time, if they breed immediately, the amount of reproduction and reproductive effect will not be ideal. It is best for breeders to wait until the second year of adulthood before allowing them to breed. Money turtles usually mate in autumn every year. After successful mating, they lay eggs from May to September of the next year, especially from June to July, which is their peak period of laying eggs.
