Turtle

would you believe this little fellow was the size of a quarter when we bought him in china town July of last year? I had to keep the water low in the tank because I thought he might drown if I filled it to high!
now look at him, the bruiser! hes as big as my hand & his claws are sharp too!

my oldest DD has made him a harness (like a friendship bracelet) so she can take him for walks across the lawn! you've got to watch him though he's fast! His full name is Flap Jack Spot, Flap for short, and with the youngest DD's allergies the only animal we can have for the nonce.
I think he's going to need a bigger tank. Soon!
