: 1 1/2 inch from head to tell. He has not grown alot but a
: little bit just here recently.
: My son says he is a slider, now slider what I dont know. But his shell just got real soft yesterday, so we took him out of his aquarium and put him in a small dry tank tonight.
: He isnt moving around much at all, he is sticking his head out of his shell and looks around, but mostly has his eyes shut.
: We bought him for my sons girlfriend and she loves this little
: guy alot. My neighbor has turtles and says there is no vet around here that knows anything about turtles or thinks you
: should have one as a pet, She told me tonight she thinks Buster
: may be dying.
