: You did quarentine it first. 15 years is the minimum period and then you should NEVER mix species.
: (only kidding)
: The Typical graeca looks ver much like a Hermans. One important point is that the Hermans does not have a hinked plastron and the tail is pointier on a hermans.
: On feeding, Give it as much as it will eat. You probably picked up one of these imports that are floating around. There is going to be an acclimation period so overfeeding should not be a problem.
: The animal you have, does it have an orange hue to the skin color?
: Ed

He does not have a orange hue that I have noticed.I do not believe him to be a import the people that I bought him from told me he was a captive born hatchling and judging by his size I would tend to believe them.
Thanks
David
