The life span of Chinese grass turtles is about 20-50 years, but how long they can grow depends on their living environment. Normally, wild turtles live longer, about 50 years. The life span of artificial farming will be shorter, about 20-30 years. Compared with other turtles, the life span of Chinese grass turtles is relatively long. As long as the environment is comfortable and the food is sufficient, the life span of artificially raised grass turtles may live to more than 30 years.
In order to make them live longer, we must first pay attention to disease prevention. Grass turtles have poor resistance in their infancy, so breeders need regular sterilization to reduce their chances of getting sick.
2. What do Chinese grass turtles think of ageThe method of distinguishing the age of Chinese grass turtles is relatively simple. First of all, it can be judged by their growth lines, that is, the lines on their carapace. A circle of lines is one year old, and breeders only need to count the number of circles of lines on their carapace, plus the year they were born is their age.
There are also some grass turtles, the lines on their carapace are not obvious, and the breeder can also judge by the rings on their belly carapace. Generally speaking, the number of circles in a circle is how old it is. If breeders want to judge their exact age, they can combine the two to judge, which will be relatively accurate.
