The lifespan of yellow-margined box turtles raised in households is usually between 40 and 60 years, but long-lived cases are not excluded. Overall, its lifespan is relatively long. There are two main factors that affect the age of the yellow-margined box turtle. On the one hand, it is its own genes. The length of its lifespan is largely affected by genes. If the parent is genetically good, it will also live longer.

On the other hand, it is to raise the yellow-margined tortoise Turtle's environment. If the breeder can raise it carefully and provide suitable conditions for its growth in terms of environment and feeding, its lifespan will be longer. It is necessary that the age of some turtles bought from the market does not reach the average level. On the one hand, it may be because they have a certain age, and on the other hand, it may be because of improper maintenance methods.
