Hi Jack,

Best to let nature take its course. They show signs of the mating ritual from a very young age. The only thing to ensure is that a female doesn't become too stressed from unwanted attentions.

can you tell me at what age do they start breeding ??????

Hi Jack, breeding is usually governed by size and age, anytime after 6-7years, some bigger but younger torts have also been known to breed.

It could take even longer as the pair have to be compatible, some people have torts for years and years and they never breed!

Thanks for getting back to me cheers
