It looks very much like a baby Loggerhead Musk Turtle. Where did you get it? In other words, did you catch it (if so, in what state), or did you buy it? This info might help with the ID.

Bill I'm pretty certain it's a musk too.. but I recall loggerheads having a much lighter.. "pink" plastron.. remember? Maybe it's a stripe-necked?

We'll see!

You gotta love 'em!
