How old are yellow-eared turtles of one or six centimeters yellow-eared turtles of six centimeters are about one year old, because their body length can increase by about five centimeters a year according to normal feeding methods, so yellow-eared turtles of six centimeters are about one year old. However, it is possible that a 6 cm yellow-eared turtle will be less than 1 year old. Because when the yellow-eared turtle hatched from the eggshell, its body length was already about 2 cm. Therefore, as long as the breeding environment is comfortable and their food is sufficient, it is very likely that they will reach 6 cm in one year.
2. How old are the yellow-eared turtles?1. Look at the carapace: If you want to see how old the yellow-eared turtles are, you can judge them by the patterns on their carapace. Because this method is not only convenient, but also more accurate. The breeder can take the yellow-eared turtle out of the container and observe the shield on their carapace. They will have a circle pattern on their shields, and a circle pattern means that they are one year old. Breeders only need to count the number of patterns on their carapace to ensure their age.
2. Look at the belly armour: If the pattern of the carapace of yellow-eared turtles is not obvious, the breeder can also judge their age by the pattern on their belly armour. The pattern on their belly armor is the same as that on their back armor, and it also represents a year in a circle.
3. Look at their body shape: Breeders can also judge by their body shape, but different feeding environments have different effects on their body shape, so this judgment method should be combined with the above two methods to be accurate.
