Many of these make poor pets, but...
Water Turtles-
- Stinkpot 4-5"
- Loggerhead Musk 4-5"
- 3 Striped Mud 3-4"
- Mississippi Mud 3-4"
- Spotted Turtles 3-5"
Land Turtles-
- Box turtles range about 4-6" which may be pushing it a little
- South African 'Padloper' tortoises (Homopus species) run about 4"
- Madagascar Spider Tortoises (Pyxis species) 4-5"
Note- the small tortoises DO NOT make good pets.
