Kristen G asked:

I have two common snapping turtles, about 1year old both, but one is bigger than the other, but they’re still pretty small. How do I know what *** they are?

    If you notice one really nags a lot and the other one doesn’t really listen and does nothing but watch t.v. , you can probably figure it out.

    The male will have a concaved belly/shell. Female belly is flat.
