Birth to Maturity

[austinl01]

Just wondering how long does it take hatchlings to reach maturity?

It probably depends upon the individual turtle, but I'd say they're pretty much sexually mature at around 5 years of age.

Thank you! All this breeding is interesting stuff. I think it's neat that turtles lay eggs.

Cheers,
