The life span of yellow-edged turtles raised in families is between 40 and 60 years, and of course some live longer, but generally speaking, their life span is relatively long compared with other turtles. There are many factors that affect their life span, and the biggest one is the feeding environment. As long as the feeding environment is comfortable and the food is sufficient, their life span will be longer. Secondly, their genes. If their genes are better, then their physique will be better and their life span will be relatively longer.

If breeders want them to live longer, they should adjust the water temperature and water quality to a suitable temperature, and prevent diseases at ordinary times. Frequent illness will also affect their life span. The digestive ability of yellow-edged closed-shell turtles is weak, so breeders should pay attention to feeding, so that they can grow healthily.

Yellow-rimmed turtles are not big, they belong to medium-small turtles, and their body length is mostly about 11-17 cm in adulthood, and few can grow to more than 20 cm. Their size has a lot to do with the way they are raised. If they are properly raised, their size can develop larger. If they are not properly raised, they will be smaller in size.

If breeders want to make them grow bigger, they must ensure that their living environment is suitable and feed them more nutritious food.
