loonie turtle?

[crestedgecko]

Hi, I was wondering if anyone knows of a turtle called a loonie turtle. I remember someone asking a petstore if they had one. If not does anyone know of any turtles that stay very small like the size of a loonie or so?

Thank You

Only hatchlings stay the size of a loonie for a few months and then they become size of saucers and dinner plates. There is no such thing as mini turtles. The smallest full grown turtle will be around 4" SCL (staright carapace length).


Cheers,
JJ
