Can different turtles be kept together?

2023-05-15 16:19:54 118

It is best not to keep turtles of different species together in the same habitat. This is because turtles of different species may have different feeding requirements and behavioral habits, such as different requirements in terms of diet, temperature and water quality. If they are mixed together, they are prone to problems such as mutual attacks or disease infection.


Even turtles of the same species may exhibit aggressive and territorial behavior. Therefore, if you plan to keep multiple turtles at the same time, make sure they are of the same species and have enough space and resources to avoid territorial behavior.


If you would like to try keeping different species of turtles in the same habitat, it is recommended that you consult with a professional turtle veterinarian or an experienced turtle breeder. They can provide you with more specific advice and precautions to ensure that your turtles live together healthily and happily.
