The growth rate of the grass turtle is not very fast. If fed normally, it can grow about two centimeters a year. According to gender, the longest can grow to more than 20 centimeters. If they are fed reasonably and provided with a very suitable living environment, they can be fed with some nutritious feed in their growing season, fed with some live bait, and supplemented with nutrients, their growth rate will become faster. But on the whole, the growth rate of grass turtles is very slow.
If you want the grass turtle to grow fast, you need to create a suitable environment for it and provide sufficient feed. First of all, the space of the fish tank should be relatively large, which can meet the requirements of its free movement, and the layout of water and land should be suitable for its living needs. Secondly, the water temperature should be more appropriate, try to maintain between 22-28 degrees Celsius. If the water temperature is too low or too high, it will not like to eat, thus affecting growth and development. Thirdly, it is necessary to feed it some living bait, such as shrimp, pork and so on, so as to supplement protein and other nutrients, so that it can grow faster. Feeding is not too frequent, usually three to four days can be fed once, in its growing season feeding effect is better. Finally, let the tortoise bask in the sun more, which can also make it grow faster.
