P.S. For all you concerned ones out there, yes, we wash our hands after each handling. These outlaws have to stay in the aquarium almost all the time. They don't get much free play; they stay mostly behind bars.

Meet the Turtles
Here's Annie's birthday present! She's been asking for turtles for some time, and so we took the plunge (pun intended) and got her these critters. These little guys are outlawed in the US, but here they're totally legal. So meet the 'lil outlaws. Annie named them Samson, Simon, and Peter. I hope this video doesn't take too long to download. It's just a slideshow of the outlaws.

I didn't know turtles were banned in the US? We have a guy down the street from us that sells turtles out of his truck... we call him the Turtle Man! - summer
your world cracks me up! I love that you've got legal/illegal pets in your household now.
Just one question -- how do you know a boy turtle from a girl turtle?
To tell the truth, I don't think the guy at the pet store knew the difference between the male/female turtles. I said in my Tarzan speak "I don't want babies." I'm assuming that he understood that I meant the TURTLES, not ME. He kept saying to me, "Oh, they won't. They won't." If these reptiles have babies I guess we'll know we got a mixed bunch.
