The golden turtle is a large turtle variety, and it can grow to 1.5 kg in adulthood. However, most of the normally raised golden turtles weigh about 1-1.5 kg. The specific size of money turtles depends on their sex and breeding methods. Generally speaking, female money turtles are relatively large, and their weight can reach about 1.25-1.5 kg. Male golden turtles are smaller and weigh 0.7-1.0 kg in adulthood. Their body size is also affected by the way they are raised. If they are raised properly and have enough food and nutrition, their body size can grow bigger. If the breeding method is improper and the environment is poor, it is difficult for them to grow to normal standards.
2. How long can money turtles liveUnder normal breeding, their life span can reach 30-80 years, and they will hibernate regularly, which can reach about 40-100 years if the hibernation time is included. Generally speaking, the life span of wild golden turtles is longer, about 60-80 years. The life span of artificially bred golden turtles will be shorter, generally only 30-50 years. Their longevity is affected by the way they are raised. If they are raised properly, their longevity will be longer. If they are raised incorrectly or in a harsh environment, their longevity will be much reduced.
