I'm just curious, i've looked it up on google and bing and no website seems to give decisive answers.
How Big (inches long and across) and Fast (length of time) Do Box Turtles Take to grow.....
from day hatched to 1 year
from 1 year two 2 year
from 3 year to 4 years....and on and on
Yes i know depending on habitat, temperature, diet, and genetics it makes a difference.
I just want to know for instance what's the smallest they could be at 1 year old vs what's the biggest they could be at 1 year old for the first few years of their lives?
Also I heard a rumor that hybrids grow at a different rate then other box turtles cause of mixed genes or something is that true?
