Hey folks, my name is Hamilton. I'm a Reeve's turtle and I love to hide and burrow myself under things when I am loose! I've hid on my mommy a bunch of times where she almost didn't find me I hid so well! Whoever said turtles are slow? When I'm loose I move wicked fast when mommy isn't looking- a sure way to get hidden easier! I'm full grown and my mom took me home with her when I was about 6 or 7 years old already. My carapace is about 6 inches from end to end. I'm a bit clumsy and it took me a while to get used to the big tank Tummi and I live in, but I taught myself to swim well enough that I can get around. I can't float like Tummi can nor am I as good a swimmer as she is. My mom seems to find amusement out of everything I do.

Well, as you can see, we've been changing things around here.  Me included! We hope you enjoy.  I have also added a few new pics.  Take a look around.

Hi folks!

Here I am posing for the camera. Aren't I such a ham!?

---

As I said, I love to find hiding spots! Although I must say I don't always find the safest of ones! Somebody get me outta here!

---

Here are two of me peeking out from another hiding spot underneath my mom's dresser. I'm so clever! 

---

Me and Tummi are on the loose, so watch out!

---

I tried to hitch a ride on Tummi's back, but unfortuneately I had trouble haning on!

---

Look at me! I'm swimming!!

---

Hey, don't sneak up on me now!

---

I just love basking on my cave!
