I'll do as you suggest and set up a nesting area. That would be cool. I can't imagine how tiny the babies would be.

Only aquatics that are not protected. Musks are not protected.

...I didn't take it out of the wild. It was on a road fixin' to get run over. I risked my own life to save/rescue it.

All of the water turtles in my area are not protected. There are about 5 types. Spotteds and Bog turtles are protected but they are in the north and east of where I live.
