General Care Discussion :: Growth of Turtle

[PorcelainTurtle]

What is the average rate for a turtle to grow?

[jenaero]

Every turt will grow at a different rate, due to care, feeding, etc. A good rate to shoot for though is 3 inches in the first year and an inch per year after. I finally got mine on the right track.

Ok thank you. I was worried that mine was too small.
