To make it simple I have no real good ideal of what my turtle is. I think it\'s a Java Leaf Turtle but I\'m not sure if it\'s even a type of turtle. I also don\'t know what sex it is. It has a anal opening on it\'s tail near it\'s shell and has tiger like stripes on it\'s brownish shell. It kinda has a jagged shell edge. I\'m not sure what it\'s age is but it\'s about 4 inches from side to side and about 5 to 6 inches I think, maby longer from it\'s shell edge near it\'s tail to it\'s shell edge near his head. It spends alot of time in the water when it\'s in it\'s tank. I\'ve tried searching the internet but got mixed or no anwsers.

Plz Help

Well it isn\'t a snapping turtle. I\'ve put my finger up to it\'s mouth plenty of time but it never bit me before. It\'s aslo quite timid. Still though does anyone know if it\'s a girl or boy??? I really need a name for it Razz
