New turtle

[Imatation Crab]

Just got a 6 inch female Mississippi Map turtle for the pond she luckily has not touched the plants or fish a YET. I had to fence the pond to keep the turtle in and it was perfect timing because my nephews are crawling now .I'm planning on setting up a fancier fence later this year. The photo quality isn't that good I'm using my phone.

Congrats on the new turtle. What is the plan for the colder months?

They are just like fish and frogs as long as you keep a hole and oxygenate the water and leave them something to burrow into like a water lily tray they survive.
