Taking care of your turtle's overall health.

Hi guys!! I'm new around here and I already got some opinions over in my urgent care thread but would like to see a collective opinion. I rescued these turtles and the person I took them from didn't know or really care.

Here's the second, smaller one. He's a lot darker in color, with different scutes.

Cumberland sliders. Little red mixed in with the yellow strips on the face.

first one is about as pure as cumberlands get..the second one, is an intergrade cumberland and yellow bellied slider. theres a little line that connects the post orbital, and the mandible stripes, and also the prefrontal arrow is connected. you can see in the cumberland the prefrontal arrow (on top of the nose) does not connect. this is typically a yellow bellied trait.
