SamBam asked:

I am asking how many inches or whatever measurement do turtles grow a year? I was wondering because I have two baby turtle Wilbur and Soappy that are growing pretty fast! SAM BAM
They have a 35 to 40 gallon tank! I feed them everyday, about 2 krill, 3 shrimp, 2 pellets, and some lettuce! But sometimes I feed them pellets and mealworms or mealworms and lettuce etc. Well, how much do they grow?

    It’s going to depend on a couple things.

    1. What species of turtle? It’s a species-by-species thing.

    2. How much do you feed them? If you’re powerfeeding them, it may affect things.
