Do male painted turtles have fat short tales?

No, male painted turtles will have long tails and claws, narrow shells, concave plastrons, and the cloaca is far down the tail, there is a large gap between the start of the tail and the cloaca. Female painted turtles have short tails, wide shells, short claws, flat or convex plastrons, and the cloaca is tucked up under the shell at the start of the tail. Although gender can be determined by the length of the tail, I find that it is not the easiest way. I find that how far down the tail the cloaca is, is the best and most accurate way of determining gender.


How do you tell your turtle is a boy or girl?

First, look at the belly. The belly of a female turtle is convex meaning it is rounder. The belly of a male is concave meaning it is a flat belly or it might even bend in a little.The next thing you look at is the tail. the males tail is usually thicker than the females. In most cases the males tail is longer to.Also, A full-grown female turtle is bigger than a full grown male turtle.Another clue is the claws. the male has longer front claws than back claws. females have claws of the same length and some times have shorter front claws. trying to figure out if a turtle is male or female can be rather difficult and is easyer said than done. if you are still uncertain of your turtles sex (gender), take him/her to a pet store and they should be able to tell you.Good luckIf all else fails, get your turtle lost, and see if it asks for directions.Go to a vet instead of doing it yourself.Boy turtles have a long tail, a rounder tail, and a concaved shell and long front claws so it can grip onto it's mate. And girl turtles have short tails flatter tails, and a flat underside to give more room for the eggs.You can tell by the boy the boy has longer nail's in the front and the girls are shorter.if a turtles shell is dark its a boy if its light its a girl

How long are green sea turtles claws?

Green sea turtles typically have claws that measure around 2 to 3 centimeters (about 0.8 to 1.2 inches) in length. These claws are not used for grasping like those of terrestrial animals; instead, they help with swimming and maneuvering through their aquatic environment. The claws can vary slightly in size based on the individual turtle and its age.

What does it mean when two turtles look at each other and they flicker there feet at the other one?

I'm not sure what kind of turtles you have. I am assuming that they are aquatic and probably the common Red Eared Slider. The males of the species have especially long front claws (nails) that they flicker at a female. If you have two that are doing it to each other, I suspect that you have two amorous males. The females have much shorter nails and shorter, wider tails.
