Hello little turtle! :D
She's cute! Look very zen indeed!
But how big is she?
Is the turtle's name Jon?
ha ha! You got it judith. Actually his name is Gammera, named after the Korean take on giant city stomping monsters (who was a giant turtle btw). And Clo, I too originally thought gam was a gal until I saw him getting a little too friendly with the water filter one day. Uh oh--too much information? Gam says HI merlinprincesse!
He's so cute. :)
LOL! Well, I said "she" because in french, turtle is feminine: we say "une tortue", so... No offense Gam! :O)
So now, I know Gammera is a little pervert, but it doesn't say how much little he is... 1, 3, 6 inches?
Oh, I'm sorry, the shell's about five inches long by four inches wide. Gam's estimated to be about six or seven years old. Eastern painted turtles have about a fifteen to thirty year lifespan. seven to eight inches is the average length though there are some wild ones nearby my place that have gotten to enormous lengths--twelve to fourteen inch shell lengths. And Clo, THANK YOU soooo mch for the Ultraman link!!!!
My pleasure! :O)
