most ppl would say dont mix species.

chicken turtles have long necks. other turtles might bite it.

i have an indoneasian snake neck turtle with 4 mapturtles of the same size.

it all depends on the turtles, some wont bother other turtles, some will. my turtle pond has yellow bellies, red beillies, cooters, maps etc. they get long fine. but i had to remove one map turtle cos it kept biting others.

just make sure the tank is big enough, more space the better. and be ready to seperate them ifi t goes wrong. so u may end up with two tanks.... fun ay?

make sure they are the same size as ur chicken turtle.
