The convention and breeder I got them from told me they were flordia stinkpot but There is not a bit of info about them on the net. I want to breed when old enough. Just want to be a good owner and provide them with the best I can but its hard when you can't find a care sheet on that specific breed.. They are not even as big a quarter. This is a very vital time of development for them... Any suggestions? Thank You So Much For All Your Help and Time

Google for the scientific name: Sternotherus odoratus (Common Musk Turtle or Stinkpot) - maybe from a Florida population then, if that's what the breeder said.

stinkpots are found over most if not all of the east coast. They are good little turtles. I have 4, 1 from a PA locale the other were bred from unknown southern locale parents by my business partner.
