Map turtles and grass turtles are two more common species of turtles, they can be kept at home as pet turtles. They can be mixed. In terms of personality, map turtles are more lively and active, and some of them are more fierce, but grass turtles are different, their personality is more gentle, and often lie quietly in one place. If mixed culture, then generally will not be a conflict.
However, if mixed culture, or need to pay attention to many problems. For example, space is a very important aspect. When mixing two or more turtles, you need to provide them with enough space and choose a larger container. Moreover, it is better to put enough stones or sunbeds in the container for them to climb up to bask in the sun or stay for a short time. Another important issue is food, to provide adequate food. Considering that the grass turtle generally can't grab the map turtle, we can take care of them a little bit to avoid malnutrition due to insufficient food.
The map turtle can also be raised together with the yellow-eared turtle. There is basically no difference in their habits and characteristics, and it is relatively easy to regulate and control the surrounding environment. Of course, polyculture also has to pay attention to space and food problems. The larger the container and the more space there is, the less they conflict with the container. However, in the early stage of mixed breeding, map turtles may be very restless because they have not yet adapted, at this time, they need to be observed all the time, and once there is a fight, they need to be separated to avoid one turtle being bitten.
