No, that's not a euphamism :).

A fellow teacher found this little snapper, "Jim-Bob" near a farm pond. Shown here on an adult shell. Hope we can get him...them...? to eat and survive. Getting a mostly aquatic tank set up. Cool way to start the school year! Both heads move and blink.

That's pretty cool! Good luck keeping the little guy(s) alive!

I wonder which head controls the legs.
 
Is it still alive?
 
Yep, still kicking! Think he's eating floating food sticks behind my back, but they dissolve so it's hard to tell. Wish he ate like the one from hoss's story.

Dog is jealous, has eaten 2 cans of turtle food. She doesn't usually take stuff off counters.;lol

It actually ate today! Glad I didn't show it this, it would never eat again.
