The Brazilian red-eared turtle is a kind of turtle that can be kept at home as a pet. Before breeding them, we can know their life span first. A scientist in the United States has investigated the life span of more than 10000 Brazilian red-eared turtles. The study found that the proportion of Brazilian red-eared turtles with a life span of less than 15 years was close to 68%; 21.4% lived between 15 and 21 years; The life span between 21 and 24 years is 7.3%; Only 3.4% of them can live for 25 years or more. The scientist has studied the life span of the Brazilian red-eared turtle for 23 years, and the data should be more credible. Although it is generally believed that turtles can easily live for decades, research shows that their life span is sometimes relatively short.
The life span of the Brazilian red-eared turtle is closely related to the surrounding environment. If the environment is not suitable, their life span will be seriously affected. For Brazilian red-eared turtles raised in families, their longevity is related to the way they are raised. If they want to live longer, they need to be carefully raised. Whether it is water quality, water temperature, water level, container and other factors, it needs special attention.
The size of the Brazilian red-eared turtle is not particularly large. When they grow up, they will be about 20 centimeters in size. However, this is only a rough data, how much they can grow is related to the way of farming, not necessarily, individual differences are more obvious. If you want them to grow up, you need to pay special attention to feeding and containers, containers should be larger, feeding every day, and choose nutritious food.
In addition, in terms of weight, their adult weight will generally be 3-4 kg. If properly maintained, they will weigh about 5 kilograms.
