I found a very small turtle in my backyard today. It's about one inch and I think it's a female. The shell is a light-brown to greenish color and the underside is light yellow. I'm pretty sure it's not a swimming turtle, but every time I pick it up, it does a swimming motion. I live in Keller, TX and I don't have any lakes or rivers nearby, but i do have a small pond a block away. It's arms and legs have tiny claws and are greenish in color.If you have an idea of what kind of turtle this is, please answer because I don't know what to feed it. I've already tried lettuce, shrimp, fruits and even bread, but it still won't eat a thing. Thank you
