Musk size

[adamlikesbananas]

If i order a hatchling stinkpot musk turtle within 2 weeks, what size do you guys think it will be when it comes in?

Very small. Maybe size of a 50 cent piece or silver dollar size. Of course just a guess. Some can be larger, some smaller.

Thank you, i was hoping it would be small but i diidnt wanna have it too small because theyre very fragile, but that sounds like the perfect size

They're very tiny as hatchlings, it's one of the things that makes them cool.

When I got my two Stinkpots they were about the size of a nickle. They are very cute turtles. I love mine.

What month of the year did you get yours?

It will be more Nickle size then anything. Mine were Nickle and growing been 3 months and still small

I added up the average time musks were born and i found out that mine would be about 4 to 5 months old when i get it, so hopefully it'll be small.

 

[Millerlite]

Yeah 4-5 months probably will be close to a half dollar

Gerard, wow! That's so cool.

Gerard posted an excellent photo/size comparison.
Mine was about the size of my thumbnail when I first got it. TINY!! I couldn't believe how small it was.
