One of my all time favorite animals.
I have several but I don't know that much about them. The only one I know a complete history on is at least 8 years old and about 7 inches. I think it is a female. As Riley says they just don't seem to grow fast. I think an inch a year is reasonable.
I have 2 big males one is 100lbs the other is about80lbs.
The 80 pounder is much older I have no proof but I estimate him to be well over a 100. The bigger turtle is younger just has the genes to be bigger.
The big one eats ducks(they're dead) that's his favorite.
Doesn't care much for fish or mammals. He'll eat chicken but ducks are his favorite.
They're amazing animals, in my show I say they should have been the national symbol for the U.S.
