I dont know where you could find that, but you may try a search engine with turtles mating. The male mounts the female from behind and that is why his shell is curved in on the bottom. The females is curved out to make room for eggs. If I find something I will let you know.

If you have a better picture, we would like to see it, I couldn\'t find any of RES mating, maybe they are too shy:D

Someone said a while ago that they had a camera on their turtle the whole time, maybe they can get a picture of them doing it. Very Happy

I understand the concept of webcams, but why would you want to see someone else\'s turtle doing turtle things when you can just look over to see what yours are doing:D

Thanks reptileman, I don\'t think I will be visiting too often, I watched it until the picture changed all that happened was that the water bubbled up once and then wait again another 60 seconds for the picture to change. Thanks though. Very Happy

, I think I\'d rather watch mine, they\'re funnier:D

They probably put that cam there so that they can check on their turtles while they work:D, makes sense doesn\'t it?
