Hi! Introduce yourselves here.

Posted: Mon Mar 22, 2010 6:35 pm **Hello from St. Louis!**

I've lurked the boards for a while, since we were given a pair of RES's [edit: PAINTEDS] last June. Thought I'd say hi and post a pic of the lil guys!
David's in the front, Pokey's poked his head up to get in the shot:

Haha! Are they really? A lady on Craigslist said "free turtles!" and gave me a tank and turtles and food and said "have fun!" Anything that I know about these turtles are entirely what I found online. I've had them for nearly a year and they are totally healthy, so I guess I'm doing it right!

Well I'll be switched. Red stripes on the marginal (underside) scutes and red and yellow striped legs!

Thanks for the info! Lol!
