Generally speaking, the life span of the serrated turtle raised in the family can reach between 30 and 50 years, with an average of 40 years, but there are also individual cases that live to 70 years. When measuring the life span of the serrated turtle, it should be noted that it will stop growing when the length of the carapace reaches 25 centimeters. Similarly, it will stop growing when it is 25 years old. You can generally deduce how big your domestic serrated turtle has grown based on this characteristic.
On the one hand, the life span of the saw-edge turtle depends on its innate genes, and on the other hand, it also depends on the breeding conditions acquired. If it is properly raised, it can grow healthily and live longer. Overall, the average life span of the saw-edged turtle is about 40 years.
Generally, the serrated turtle with a weight of more than one catty and a length of about 15 centimeters can carry out reproductive behavior. In terms of age, it needs to wait until its sexual maturity, usually after five years of breeding. If the adult tortoise is bought from the market, it can be bred after one year at home. The breeding time of serrated turtles is probably in April and May every year, when the physiological activity is the most vigorous. After 80 to 90 days of incubation after laying eggs, turtles can be born.
