Ok, I have a young Mata Mata over here, and am a bit puzzled on this odd species... Or rather on sexing the little buggers. I haven't found anything on the internet so I'm hoping someone about here can help.
Thanks!

They're sexed in the same way other turtles are- the males get a longer tail with a bulge in it. But I don't know how BIG they have to be before they're sexable. Most turtles have to be at least half grown.
