I think that common musk turtles stay between 3-5".

Musk and mud turtles are your best bets

A tortoise that small would be really nice.Those little baby sulcattas in the stores are so cute.

I know Egyptains stay small, I think like 4-6inches but they are around $400ish

There is a tortoise that size, the various Padloper species (genus Homopus), but I've never seen them for sale. 3-5" is full adult.

As far as turtles go, I'd go with Mud/Musk turtles.

How much would one of those tortoise go for?
