Havent a clue what to name it! I'm trying to figure out the sex and I'm leaning towards male, I think, but I'm not really sure to be honest. He kicks me every time I try to have a good look at his tail!

Anyone have name ideas?

He's currently residing in a spare 20 gallon long by himself. The guy I got him from apparently overfed him and caused the edges of his carapace to curl. :/

Wow another nice turtle. Just some advice but don't get in too far over your head. Turtles are a lot of work all all the ones you just got have a LOT more growing to do. Best of luck and enjoy your new turtles. :)

I completely agree. I got them fully knowing that I would need to upgrade not too far from now, and that they do take a lot of work. Your advice has been great.
