Well I got her in September from a little boy who sold her as miniature in one of those little turtle death traps. I brought her home did research and found this website. I now know there is no such thing as miniature turtles (Well maybe?) and I read how to care for her so I moved Her in to my 20Gal that was left over after my Hedgehog died. Now she has a good filter (For 20 gals) Rosy Reds,(Right now really small goldfish I know goldfish aren't great but they were out of Minnows and I like the convenience of fish If i'm away)(The Lights are on a timer) So when I measured her she was about an inch and a half now she is approaching 2" (Which means they are most likely yearlings right?) Well I just want to know if this sound like a semi-normal growth rate?
although she is due for a shed and I'm going to get her some sweet potato tomorrow
