    Sex my Redfoot

    So we are at 3-1 male. Anybody else care to take a look. I’m trying to pair him/her up with a breeding partner but I’d like to know what sex I’m dealing with. 😝. He’s about 7 years old, and I’ve had him for 6.5 of them. Would different pictures help? If so, what pics?

    Sex my Redfoot

    I appreciate the input. I was told a while back it was a female, but I too notice all the signs pointing to male. Can I say with certainty that this is intact a male Redfoot?

    Painted River Terrapin - Batagur Borneonsis

    Hello everyone. I just was lucky enough to acquire a beautiful 4 month old painted River terrapin. Anyone have any experience with these “little” guys. Regarding food, I have read a lot of breeders use mazuri Tortoise chow as this is low on protein and high in fiber (which these guys need)...

    Giant Mexican Musk Turtle shell changed colors. Why?

    Interesting point. The only thing that doesn’t make sense is the plastron is still extremely reddish. Hasn’t faded at all. Thank you for your thoughts. Appreciate it.

The last few months his shell has lost almost all the red color on top. Any idea why, or if this is...

    3 Year old Giant Mexican Musk - Staurotypus triporcatus

    Anybody know how big Males get? I heard females can get up to or larger than 15” but the only thing I’ve heard of males is they are significantly smaller. I’m curious as to what I can expect from this fella. Here are some updated pics...

    Need Help - DBT swollen foot

    Noted. That’s what I’m staring to think as well. Doesn’t feel or look broken. I notice a small cut between 2 of his toes. Have no idea how this happened. Do you think it could be a fungus and the skin simply cracked from being so swollen? Appreciate the help.
