Bo is my '09 hatchling male Concentric Diamondback Terrapin - shy 5" SCL -
He has a new girl-friend.. she was raised in a very small tank with maybe 15 gallons of water ( so the previous keeper said ).. raised from a hatchling [ probly '09 also.. not sure ] - she is now 6.5" SCL. She loves to cruise around in the filter exhaust in 100+ gallons of water now. I have taken at least 33874865219035 pics of her and just can't seem to get the lighting, etc. right - so here goes.......
Playing in the bubbles -
Profilin' -
On the 'ramp mat going into the nest box -
Check out this wierd pic.. see the bubble reflection pic? -
Bonnie appears to be a "Northern" Terrapin due to her tiny flecks on her face.. and she also has Concentric blood in her due to the broken/jagged lines on her head and the lighter "white" colors and shades!
Most "Northerns" are tan in color like Betsy ( Bo's first girl-friend.. he gets around ) - she's "proven" at 8" SCL -
They should make purty babies! Available in a year or three...
And Bo 'courtin' Bonnie -
