HOW BIG CAN YOU GROW?

Terrapins are commonly seen and kept as pets in Singapore. Due to their initial tiny stature and low cost, they are often bought on impulse. However, not many know that they can grow up to 12 inches, which is a size of a dinner plate.

Terrapins have a long lifespan of 20 to 50 years, which makes taking care of them is a long-term commitment. We constantly share that pet is a lifetime commitment, so do think twice before getting one.
