At the moment, I only have my 3 turtles, but I'm in the process of getting rid of the rest of my fish and fish stuff and really getting back into herps, so there will be a lot more pictures to come in the next few months.
First is my peninsula cooter. He's about 10 years old and I've had him since he was the size of a quarter. When I first got him, I really didn't know what I was doing, so he had a couple years of sub-par care and is small for his age, but he's doing great now.
At a few months old:
and now:
I've also got a yellow bellied slider. He's about 9 years old I think and also small for his age, but has turned around with proper care just like the cooter
Here he is when I first got him:
and now (has always been really shy)
Then I've got a stinkpot that I'd guess is less than 2 years old. I've had him almost a year after a friend gave him to me (he was very lethargic, my friend wanted to see if I could do anything to save him. He just wasn't being kept warm enough and turned around for me in a couple hours and has done great since). My (now ex-) girlfriend named him Norbert
