Okay Im not sure what the heck is going on.. Im starting to think its raining turtles and torts at my house.. lol.. I know this guy/girl isnt a tort.. (web back feet) and his shape is so different from last guy found in back yard..
This guy doesn't look anything like the couple of turtles we have around the yard.. So im not sure where this guy came from.. I don't think he came up from the bayou because his shell is really really clean. I just need to know is it okay to return him in the yard where we found him or what?
I have heard of raining cats and dogs before but never turtles/torts.. lol.
Thanks again for any info on this guy and for the record.. I really don't want to keep another one..lol.. of course my daughter is like OH YEA!! but no.. this guy is very spirited!! Very pretty but not really friendly like the tort.. He didnt try to bite or anything.. Just fingers crossed yall say he can go back out in the yard.. If not then I will try and do something..
Also how do you tell aprox how old turtles/torts are??
In the 3rd picture you can see how close the bayou is to my house.. So a turtle here and there is normal but have never seen one like this before not up near the house and deff never saw the tort before. lol.
Thanks yall..
