Found this little guy running across a busy road. And there is a pond near there but its fenced with a sign no trespassing. anyway he has the feet of a semi-aquatic so I will set-up the 10 gal I have. Any ideas? Pictures of top and bottom.

| I found out this is a Florida Mud Turtle. I am going to study up on it. It is almost young enough to be a hatchling. |

He is a cute little thing. Can't believe it tried it's luck against a busy motorway.
Good thing you picked it up - or it'd be visiting Splatsville USA. _________________
