Introducing my new Malaclemys terrapin.

Hi All,

Well, about two weeks ago, I got two Malaclemys terrapin. They are tiny, just the tiniest little turtles I have ever owned.

In the two weeks and two days I have owned them, I swear they have grown. Since, well, all they do is eat. Not like I am complaining or anything like that. They just have such an insensible appetite.

It is also so cute, whenever, they see a a human, they come to the front of the tank. I am sure that is only because they are expecting food. But, it still makes them so darn cute.

Anyway, here are some photo's of them, over the past two weeks and two days in my care.

This is a ventral photo of the smaller turtle. Well, the tinier of the two. I think he/she looks so cute in that picture. What do you all think?

This is a ventral view of the "larger one". I love all the white on this particular specimens face.

Please excuse my ugly fingernails. I was just working in the Pyxicephalus adspersus enclosure.
