could be because you keep it in a 30 gallon tank 20 other turtles.


@rey, That is awesome, I love ally snappers. I would like to see some pics of the tank too.

@packer, this is a shot of me and a full grown adult that is actually on the low end of what size they can get up to.

Thanks, Snakeguy, for bringing me down to earth again.
Young they are stunning!
Very cool herps!

For me Im bit happy my Snapper appeared to be a common.
But I wish you all the best with your beauties.

Nice! Me and the GF saw one at the Newport Aquarium and it was huge. I thought they were fast growers though.

ally snappers are slow growers. i think they grow like 1 inch carapace length a year.

and i think they look muc more attractive when they are little.
