Well my birthday isn't until early September, however my lovely fiancee decided she knew exactly what I would like...a turtle!
She grew up with box turtles and decided that she would like to get one for me. The only thing is they aren't available at the pet store until spring and early summer!
Well...over the weekend we headed out and got one. His name...(although I think he's actually a girl) is "Sheldon". It was the first name that came to me. Take a look what do you think?
I haven't had my own pet since I was in middle school. I hope I remember how to take care of him. :)
He's doing great so far and spends a lot of time with his head out of his shell which is nice. It means he doesn't spend all his time in his shell. He even lets me pet the top of his head!
Just thought I would share a picture of my exciting friend. Thanks for looking!

Thanks for sharing! My mom and I heard you talking about him on the radio, and we both agreed that Sheldon is a great name for a turtle. He/she is really cute!
To determine if Sheldon os a boy or a girl look at its under shell. If it is a girl the under shell will be flat. if it is a boy the under shell will be concave. Hope it helps. Carmen
