Expert Answer

Female golden coin turtles need 5-7 years to reach sexual maturity and breed; males mature earlier at 3-5 years. It is best to wait 1-2 years after a female is capable, since freshly mature females have low fertilization rates and weaker hatchlings. Let her mature 1-2 more years before breeding.
