General Care Discussion :: Boy or Girl?

[SebastianMillhouse]

How do you tell if your turtle is a boy or a girl? Just in case you can tell by looking or something, here is my turtle:

[BullDog]

Your turtle has to be at least 4 inches to be able to tell... Males will have long front claws and a bigger tails, while females have shorter front claws and a smaller tail

How big is your turt? It looks to me like you are going to be waitng a bit to find out.

What kind of set up is you turt in?

I was hoping that it was just for picture taking...I guess there is more of a problem than I wanted to see. Yikes...those death bowls are back.

Yes he is in a lagoon. We have a tank that we are preparing now.
