Yellow-edged turtles normally close their shells after adulthood, so the time for them to close their shells is uncertain. Because of different feeding methods and feeding methods, their maturation time is different. If the breeding method is suitable for their growth, it is possible to close their shells at an early age.
The reason why yellow-edged closed-shell turtles have closed shells is that there is a bone bridge connection between their bodies and their shells, so when their limbs retract backward, their shells will also be retracted together to form closed shells. Closed shell is a characteristic of yellow-edged turtles, and it is also the biggest difference between them and other turtles.
2. How big can the yellow-edged closed-shell turtle growThe body length of the yellow-edged closed-shell turtle can reach about 10-20 cm in adulthood, which is about ten centimeters on average. Their size belongs to the medium-to-small type, and how big they can grow will be affected by the way they are raised and the food they eat.
If you want the yellow-edged closed-shell turtles to grow bigger, you must prepare enough food for them and ensure that their living environment is comfortable, so that they can grow faster. At the same time, we should give them more sunshine and increase their resistance, so as to avoid diseases during their growth and development.
