[HPIZZLE]

That's fair enough I suppose since I have no proof. I can only report what I have seen.

what ever you gotta tell yourself.


i may have beleived you aboiut the 4 foot one cause shedd had one in between 3-4 but closer to 3.....but 5 foot shell? hell no.

So the one there could easily have a 2 foot or larger shell.. It wasn't 3 feet but easily 2 feet. I don't think I have any more pics of the chub but I'll take a look.

Nice shots Muddy,I would guess that the unidentified turtle is some sort of muskturtle.

Nice pics...looks like a great time!!(envious)...

I think common snappers can go 40-50 years in captivity and large specimens go about 75-100 pounds.

Nice pics.

All those turtle are Stinkpot Musk Turtles. They're very easy to take care of and one of the best beginner species to start off with. I have a pair myself.
