can a razor turtle live? The life span of a razor turtle is generally between 15 and 25 years. How long they can live depends on their environment and the way they are raised. Generally speaking, razor turtles in the wild live longer than those in captivity, and can live for 25-30 years. Because there is plenty of space in the wild and there are more microorganisms in the water, their physique will be better.
In captivity, they can live up to 25 years if the surrounding environment is suitable, and more experienced breeders can raise them up to 30 years. But if the environment is poor and the nutrition is insufficient, they can only live for about 20 years. If they are easy to get sick and have poor physique, their life span can only be about 15 years.
? The time of adulthood of razor turtles is not fixed, especially between females and males, the time of adulthood is different. Generally speaking, female tortoises will mature earlier, 4-5 years after birth. Male tortoises take longer to reach adulthood, taking 5-6 years to mature. In addition to looking at the age of birth, breeders can also measure the length of their carapace to determine when they are mature. In normal breeding, the length of the carapace of female turtles generally reaches 10 centimeters, and the length of the carapace of male turtles reaches 10-12 centimeters.
