General Care Discussion :: *Updated* pictures of Keira's shell.

Taking care of your turtle's overall health.

Post Posted: Tue Dec 04, 2007 9:59 pm   *Updated* pictures of Keira's shell.

Here is her shell now. It has kinda changed. You can tell that on her plastron, the bottom part, her shell is starting to come off right there. Well hopefully, she will shed soon, and so will my other turtles. :)

Here she is, saying hi!!-- :lol:

Your turtle looks great! Are you sure she is a girl? The tail looks kinda big in the picture. ;)

I don't know if she is a boy or girl yet. Her name is a girl name, so I just end up calling her a she. :D
