My very first pet, when I was 5 or 6, was a little painted turtle (I mean the species, not that somebody actually painted on it). His name was Billy, and I was heartbroken when he died, but we had a nice burial for him.
Had one of those. His name was Jean Lafitte.

Reminds me of being a kid and going in Woolworths. In the back of the store they had a pet section which had small turtles for sale along with parakeets.
We had about four rounds of turtles, always named Gopher and Shelly.
man...i just loved my pet turtles...hated when they died. Even when i was older, got my hands on a Wood Turtle....smart as hell...guess they are prohibited to own..need a license of some type..
