Awesome and congrats Lisa! How'd you come up with the name squirt? It seems to fit him nicely.
His markings are quite beautiful

I have no idea. I was just trying to find a gender neutral name.

Thank you! About 20 years ago I had a solid black, huge old GC. He was an impressive guy.

Mine was drab brown and didn't have as much color as yours. When he matured, the color was amazing!

Beautiful! But I think he was an adorable baby too!

Squirt is looking good, it has a nice high domed carapace.

He seems to be growing quick. How often do you feed and what?

I feed daily. Nightcrawlers, reptiworms, small superworms for protein. Greens, veggies, and fruits....but he's still not eating those too good. He is a gulf coast so may be a bit bigger than other subspecies.
