pezeji: Adolescent black marsh turtle this one. Yes they're very shy and won't cost a lot to maintain, they'll eat insects, worms, and plants. Probably won't grow any bigger than that. Thank goodness you're keeping it as a pet, do never attempt to land the guy in your pot for two important reasons 1. You might suffer liver or brain damage due to high level of mercury in their tissue. 2. These guys are endangered and vulnerable, even in Southeast Asia where they are usually found, which means this guy must have travelled from a different continent. 4 Likes |

That is a turtle though, but the issue now is can you really keep it as a pet? can you fend and care for it? do you know its diet, esp for young ones like this? Cos it will be so painful if it die of hunger or poor care. So will advice you to do more research on how to keep a turtle as pet or better still return it to the wild. I know you are like me who will wanna keep it as a pet so endeavour to keep it well. 1 Like |

pezeji:In case u change ur mind. Very smart animal it'll most likely know when you want to make pepper soup out of it. When it does, it'll refuse to come out of its shell. WHAT TO DO. Get a candle. Light it on its tail, that way it'll be force to bring forth its head for slaughter. Don't mention. |

nkezecheckport: Leather back turtle don't have the same plastron as a black marsh turtle, if you look at its belly, you'll see those dye-like pattern on it's coastal scutes. Leather back turtle's coastal scute is either white or yellow depending on age and habitat, and also they don't have those kind of dye-like patterns like a black marsh turtle. So this turtle definitely is a black marsh turtle. 1 Like |

It's a turtle. Fortunately, you can train it to be a ninja turtle (as others might have suggested). Now this is a dry joke, a very dry one at that. |
