[grimbeny]

We have one really dark saw shell and one light one, we call them day and night. Its handy for telling them apart.

I had a little murray river turtle, it was almost black when I got it, and it got lighter as it grew.. but I've seen heaps of baby ones that are really light in comparison to the one I had at around the same age.

Maybe being light and dark in colour...they can like like dappled light in the water and are invisible to predators!
