Well if you wanted to find out if it was a male or female it would be the length of the tail on the turtle but they have to be a little older (Males have longer tails). You can also tell them apart by their stomaches or the shells.answer- the best thing to do is to paint are marker their names to the bottom or top of the shell that's what i did cause i have 5 painten turtle 1 common musk and 1 common snapin are Florida snapping

I'd say the same a the first dude, it's commonly found due to the tail, and shell.

One way I learned to identify the gender of a turtle is my the length of its claws. Males have longer claws than females, however, you cannot really tell the difference in lengths of it's claws until it has matured enough. Another way to identify the sex of your turtle is by the size of it's tail. Males also have longer and fatter tails than females do.

If they are the same kind of turtles and you know their behaviors you can tell that way. For example I have 3 Central American Ornate Wood turtles. (1 is still young so she is much smaller). Their shells both look very similar. But I know that Big Momma is very outgoing and Bertha is shy. So when I pick one of them up the one that pokes her head out is Big Momma.
