: My Little brother just found a SS turtle in a stream in Hawaii. It has a long pointy nose, and an exceptionally long neck. If someone has some information about this turtle, could you please email me. I am looking to find out how it likes to live, and what it likes to eat.
: Thank You,
: Lyndon

Chances are its either a chinses softshell or a wattleneck softshell(the only two found on Hawaii). Depending on the size, feed it fish, worms and if you can, Reptomin(floating food sticks). As for living conditions, check the area where it came from for an approximation. Hope this helps.
