Well certainly wouldn't be 10" at 5 days old. Central America has many species of wood turtles. Are they aquatic? Photos will be your best bet for us to Id them.

I think maybe they meant they were getting the turtles in five days to two weeks. Have a cup of coffee with me. I think you're right. Probably Central
American Rhinoclemys.

It could be so many different kinds to be honest.
