So I guess you are not in an area where RES are restriced? They are on the banned list here now, unless you owned them before a certain time. Not allowed to have them in outdoor ponds, as they are considered environmental pest. Breed like rabbits, and elbow out the native population.



I have had musk turtles, Florida cooters, RES, and boxies.

Cool, want to share some pictures i always wanted a musk turtle, but never got to getting one. i Live in GA, and all my turtles were female. They were in a large me-built pond inside a fence, inside a fenced in back yard.
