My daughter brought home a turtle 4 days ago and he escaped and was lost in my house for 4 days. I just found him, he’s the size of a half dollar and scared to death. I sat him in a shallow pan of water (doesn’t even touch the bottom of his shell) because I don’t know if he’s a water turtle or not. In the pan I put some watermelon and broccoli (really all I had fresh) and some random turtle pellets from the last time she brought home a turtle. He’s so tiny, I’d love to keep him but I’m mostly concerned about dehydration with him being lost for 4 days. Can anyone identify him and tell me what to do?
