yes, once they grow up they are huge and heavy and you can't get them into your hand so easily like before, which is sad.. and turtle is so slow.. I feel like it took them forever to walk for some meter lol xD
"I am gonna love you like I've never been broken."
I watched a video of a woman who turned her bathtub into an aquarium and the turtle was HUGE. I'm just waiting for her to grow up so I can let her loose around the house and watch her chase the cat, haha. If I did that now she's probably crawl under the sofa and get stuck there.
From what I've read, female turtles have smaller claws than male turtles! Either he's a late bloomer, or it's really a she XP Luckily, Kiri's a pretty gender-ambiguous name (and we just call her "the turtle" anyway, haha).
I have turtles, my cousins bought it 7years ago for science research and when she finished her research she gave them to me (she left them TBH)..
for the first period they will grow up quite fast, but once they reach that moment of time, they will stop growing.. just like what happened to my turtle..
your turtle is cute :D my turtles are old now.. they are so heavy so I can't play with them anymore x3

It would be hilarious! I'm all prepared for it, though, since "Kiri" is a gender-neutral name and we call it "the turtle" ("broasca") anyway :P

Congratulations! What a cutie she is! If you're sure it's a she... would be really funny if it turned out to be a nice gentleman instead! :D
