North American Spotted Turtle

These hatchlings are 1-2 months old and thriving. Feeding on blood worms, mealworms, reptomin. The Spotted Turtle is one of my personal favorite fully aquatic species of turtle. The vibrant spots on that jet black shell are a work of art. Not to mention this North American species averages a whopping 4 inches as adults. You read that correctly! Their range is up the east coast as well as near the Great Lakes.
