I was wondering how much a turtle grows in a month & what's the average they should be around 1 year. Also how are you supposed to measure them? Only she'll or head & shell? I have EBT's. 2 females, one male. Thank you!

They grow at different rates, just like people and animals.

When you measure you measure from front to back in a straight line, only the shell. Lay your tape measure on the floor at the wall then push a turtle up against the wall next to the tape.
