Gerards said:Very nice! Pseudemys are some of my favorite turtles to keep.
Anthony P said:They're like manatees of the US turtle world. I think their size, diet and temperament makes them so cool. I used to keep Pseudemys gorzugi for years and really got to love that genus. Too bad they're not a good fit for my Northerly climate.
Good luck with her! Next time you update us, she might be double that size!
Anthony P said:Hey don't rub it in!! I love those qualities too, but all those big cow like chelonians don't belong in a New England basement, haha. You Southerners have all the fun!!
I totally agree though Gerard. I'm sure I'm forgetting some in the moment, but Podocnemis, Pseudemys, the bigger Trachemys, Batagur, Orlitia, Hardella, Geoclemys, even though they eat mostly snails instead of greens, and Heosemys grandis would all be amazing. I suppose I'll just have to dream, until my wife lets me drag her South!
