What Kind of Turtle

sodium Sep 18, 2004 01:53 PM

Does any one know what kind of turtle this is. It was given to me by someone who bought it in Helotes, Texas (about 5 hours from Houston) pet store. They said there were many of these turtles for sale. If more pictures are needed to Identify the turtle I have several more. Thank you in advance for all your Help.

I'm by no means an expert, but it looks kinda like a redbelly to me (that's just from the markings on the head).
