Choose the right size of your turtle terrarium

The turtle terrarium should be above all spacious, they are very active animals who need a lot of walking. The bigger the turtle terrarium, the better. It should be remembered that young turtles grow quickly, it is worth choosing an "outgrown" terrarium that will last longer, thus reducing expenses. The material for the terrarium should be resistant to moisture and allow for cleaning and disinfection.
