At natural temperature, the soft-shelled turtle will grow for 4-5 years before reaching sexual maturity. When the water temperature reaches above 20℃, estrus mating begins. Once mating, many times laying eggs. The north spawns 2-3 times a year, and the south spawns 4-5 times. May-August is the spawning period, and June-July is the spawning peak. The spawning time is usually in the middle of the night (0 ~ 6 o'clock), which is related to turtles' preference for quiet environment. The way turtles lay eggs is to dig holes and bury them with sand after giving birth, so a sandy spawning ground should be set around the pond.
The main reason why we don't keep turtles at home is their habits. Turtles are naturally aggressive. Big turtle and small turtle are not suitable for raising together. And turtles will be bullied among groups. When food is scarce, the same kind will kill each other and then eat them. From the perspective of geomantic omen, no one has raised turtles yet. Turtle has no function of promoting wealth and changing magnetic field. Moreover, the soft-shelled turtle is negative and can't be kept at home. Better put it on the balcony. It is best to put goldfish or turtles in the financial position at home.
