Hi,
I have 8 RES Females,1 RES Male, & 2 Male Pacific pond turtles. All my Females are at least twice the size of the males.
The Females have smaller tailes and nails, and there body cavaty is higher,more dome shaped, than flat. And Yes they inter mix
& layed eggs,we will soon see if they hatch. I have had many babies in the past, but have never mixed breeds before.
I hope this helps, Thanks Kitty

Males have...longer tails, vent is further down the tail then females, larger claws, bottom carpace is slightly rounded in a bit, smaller body.
Females have...shorter tails, vent is next to body, short not as sharp of claws, bottom carpace is flat, larger body.
Good luck!
Willie
