    Large Red-Eared Slider

    Hi,

    We had some crazy rain a few days ago (10"+ in some places in less than a day) and so the bayou and lakes in the neighborhood were high. I caught a couple of smaller turtles in the bayou (all Red-Earned Sliders) but a few friends found this big boy on the road. Brought him over to the reptile kid in the neighborhood and I snapped some shots







    Thanks,
    MH

    Yeah he wouldn't let my hands near his face.

    They're so funny, I can't get tired of them.

    Short nails = Female

    Long nails = Male

    The females get HUGE too

    I think theres a difference in size of tails as well. I just know male nails are sooo long.
