Can terrapins and turtles live in a vivarium
Terrapins live in either fresh or slightly salty water. Terrapins are cold-blooded. Terrapins have much sharper senses of vision and smell than humans.
Terrapins are generally solitary animals, but they can live with other terrapins if they have enough space, hiding spots, and food resources to minimize aggression. It is important to monitor their interactions to ensure they are not harming each other.
Yellow-bellied terrapins, also known as yellow-bellied sliders, can live up to 30 years in the wild. In captivity, with proper care and diet, they can live even longer, up to 40 years or more. It's essential to provide them with a suitable environment, balanced diet, and regular veterinary check-ups to ensure a long and healthy life.
the average life span is 15-20 years
Terrapins, particularly the Eastern box turtle, can live a long time, often reaching ages of 50 years or more in the wild. Some individuals in captivity have been known to live over 100 years with proper care. Factors such as habitat, diet, and threats from predators or environmental changes significantly influence their lifespan.
They live for many years so I would assume that they must therefore live in all seasons.
Terrapins can live for around 30-40 years with proper care and a suitable habitat. Proper diet, healthcare, and environment play crucial roles in determining their lifespan.
your answer is no pet terrapins cant be released into a wild pond because it will not know how to find its own food if you feed it free hand now and also they will get a lot of diseases and will not live long. for more help and support visit your local pet shop or RSPCA
It is a fancy term for tortoise, therefore sometimes you can keep them as pets depending on the breed. Terrapins make good pets PROVIDED you keep their enclosure clean ! They live quite a long time, and are easy to care for. Sorry Lauren9712 - terrapin is NOT a 'fancy name for a tortoise' they are COMPLETELY different animals. !
