I doubted I would have "water" turtles again.. but I hatched a few of this species a few years back and really like them - especially from the locale these came from!

A young adult male.. 4 3/4" scl..

[ FOR SOME REASON MY PHOTOBUCKET PICS WON'T POST??? ANY IDEAS ANYONE??? ]

Hi Terry: We haven't heard from you in quite a while. Was wondering where you were! Sorry, I can't help with your Photobucket problem. It seems to be working ok for me.

I helped Terry because his photobucket wasn't working right.

Josh I spoke with Chucky..

He said to hi-lite the IMG Code in the PhotoBucket album.. hold down the Ctrl key and then the C key. [ that copies the link ]

Then open the 'thread' and click in the space to paste into and hold down the Ctrl key and then the V key.. which pastes the pic.

Like so..

The first one is a male Texas Diamondback Tearrpin (Malaclemys terrapin littoralis) and last is a female Northern Diamondback Tearrpin(Malaclemys terrapin terrapin). She looks like some of mine.
