All photos are for reference and are not of the animal you will be receiving. We go by age, not size, as each animal grows at its own rate. Hatchlings are 1-3 months, well started are are 3-7 months, and yearlings are 8+ months. Our biologist will send an animal from whatever end of that age range we have available at that time. We do our best to sex the reptiles we sell, however, we cannot guarantee sex for anything that is purchased other than adults. We are accurate on most juveniles and hatchlings, but we do make mistakes as some animals do not show their sex as early as others, depending on many factors. Any species of animal that is capable of being temperature sexed while incubating is sexed in that manner, as there is no way to visually sex them until later in life.

Diamondback Turtle Lighting

Terrapins need water that’s above 70 degrees F. During the daytime, white heat lights provide warmth to your terrapin’s tank. At night, a ceramic heat emitter with only blue or red light will be needed to provide extra warmth, as temperatures drop after sunset. The same water heaters that are used to heat fish tanks can also be used to keep the water warm. It is important to make sure the ambient temperature in the air of the enclosure is kept close to 80 degrees F.

Diamondback turtles need UVB lights. UVB spectrum lights that are made for reptiles should be kept on for about 12 hours a day and should be kept about a foot from where the turtle basks. This allows your turtle to grow, stay healthy and strong, and convert vitamin D into energy. Metabolic bone disease and not growing properly are side effects of lack of UVB light.

Diamondback Terrapins Diet

Diamondback terrapins primarily eat meat, unlike a lot of aquatic turtles. They eat a variety of small aquatic animals in the wild. They snack on some plants also. While in captivity, they must be fed turtle pellets, dried snails, shrimp, smelt, or other seafood. They should be fed once every other day.

They must not be fed chicken or beef. They do not enjoy food that they would not find in their native habitat. They do not digest new foods easily. Terrapins are some of the messiest eaters of the turtle species. They can be found turning over their food bowls to eat wherever they choose.

Diamondback Terrapin Behavior

Diamondback terrapins are social turtles and enjoy the company of other terrapins. They are known to enjoy sharing resources and basking together on the best basking rock. They often bask together during the day. Diamondbacks do better in groups if there is enough space for each one. Overcrowded tanks lead to aggravated turtles which may nip at other turtle’s tails.

A Diamondback Terrapin Lifespan

While they are not the longest living species of turtle, they can live to be 25 to 40 years old. But this is only if they are properly cared for.
