The baby painted turtles in my area (The Outer Banks of NC) are about the size of a half dollar. As a matter of fact I almost ran over one a couple of days ago when I was mowing grass. Fortunately I saw him and was able to stop, move him out of harms way and go about my business :-)
Giant turtles are from the Galapigos Islands. Heres another fact: There is only ONE Giant Turtle left in the world!
size is not an accurate way to tell age of a turtle do to the fact that if the turtle is kept in poor conditions ie without light in a very small enclosure not eating correctly or if it is sick... but from my opinion a quarter sized turtle is about 5 weeks old.
in fact turtles are the same they hunt and the are hunted
