Hello everyone! :D

A day after my birthday I was given two baby RES turtle. Their names are Swimmer because he was very energetic in the water, and Nibbles because he only took small bites of his food whenever I feed them. :P

Nibbles shell is at a 35 mm in diameter, while Swimmer is a firm 30 mm. Their age is undetermined, but assuming their size and shape they are still infants. Idk their genders either so I'm using the pronoun 'he' when referring to my turtles for now. I currently have them in a 5 gallon glass tank, and transfer them to a 2 gallon tank when feeding.

Say hi guys! :mrgreen: :msgreen:

The one on the rock is Nibbles, and the one below him is Swimmer! :wink:

Ha ha, thanks! Here is a larger version of the image since my avatar is too small to show many details:

Thank you! I'm sure Nibbles and Swimmer are very flattered to hear these comments.
