General Care Discussion :: when are they no longer hatchlings?

Taking care of your turtle's overall health.

So this is a dumb question, but when are baby turtles no longer hatchlings? Is it a certain age or size or???

Is there any way to tell how old my turtles are? Even approx age?

Usually after a year, then they are called yearlings. No real way to tell age though.
