What kind of turtle is this?

oscarthetortoise Sep 21, 2008 10:53 AM

Hi,

I homed a turtle 2 days ago and it's in pretty bad shape. I'm trying to get it better, but I'm having difficulty doing so as I'm not sure what kind of turtle it is and therefore how I should be caring for him. Any help / advise would be great! Thanks!

It looks like a Reeves turtle, Mauremys reevesii, to me.

I am not sure about Reeves' Turtle...could be, but it does not look typical. Do you have any pictures of its head and plastron (belly)?
