Musk turtles don't grow very fast, they can only grow about 0.3 cm a month and about 4 cm a year. Because of their small size, the average length of adults is 8-14 cm. They can grow up to 5 centimeters a year if they are properly raised and fed. If breeders want them to grow faster, they can feed more animal feed, which can ensure that they need sufficient nutrition and accelerate their development.
Is musk turtle growing fast? How to raise it quickly 1. Do musk turtles grow fast

Musk turtles don't grow fast. They can only grow about 0.3 cm a month and about 4 cm a year. Because they are small in size as adults, only about 8-14 cm long, their growth rate is relatively slow compared with other turtles. If they are kept in a suitable environment and have enough food, they can grow up to 5 cm a year. If the living environment is poor and food is scarce, they will grow slower and some will stop growing.

2. How to raise musk turtles quickly

1. Environment: In order to make musk turtles grow faster, it is necessary to ensure that their living environment is suitable. Breeders need to keep the water temperature between 21-26 ℃ and ensure that the water quality is clean and refreshing. At ordinary times, food residues and feces in containers should be cleaned regularly. If conditions permit, a circulating filtration system can be installed.

2. Feeding: Breeders need to feed musk turtles if they want them to grow rapidly. Breeders can usually feed more animal feeds, such as small fish, shrimp, red worms, snails, tadpoles, lean meat and other foods, so as to ensure adequate nutrition for their growth and development.

3. Containers: If you want them to grow faster and bigger, you should give them enough room to move, so that they can grow faster.
