Has it got a UV light? What are your plans for an enclosure? I love setting up new enclosures lol, very cute turtle, what species is it? Which short neck? Ive got Eastern Long Necks abit smaller than yours, Murray River Shortnecks the same size and some murrays that around yearlings about 10cm shells! Theyre awesome little things!

it has got a uv light i took him out of my 6 foot tank to make sure it ate something
and it is a brisbane short neck( Emydura signata )

VERY CUTE Looks very similar to my murrays. Good work

i havent got a good head shot of it yet he has a yellow streak running from it's cheak to half way down its neck

 

[mines bigger]

here is the best shot i have so far

 

[sxc_celly]

So do the murrays. A yellows stripe behind the eye or behind the cheek running down at least half the head, its so cute!

Brisbane short necks are the same species as murray river turtles, just a differant subspecies(unless its been changed again)
