I've never kept them but know a couple people who have. Pretty cool critters. The only advise I can give is to check the laws before you by any. A bunch of states are making certian species illegal to keep as pets. Here in Maine they made the red eared slider illegal because to many people buy them and then cant get rid of them when they lose intrest and set them free in the backyard. Now they are classified as an invasive species that is reproducing an raising hell with the native turtles.
Look forward to the pics whe you get them. Cool project.
