Oh

---

try going to a web site about turtles.maybe something like.

www.turtles.com

---

giving us a pic might be a good place to start

---

Painted Turtles need water. They are different colors.

TRY TO FIND A GGOD BOOK THAT SHOWS PICTURES OF TURTLES OR CHECK TURTLE WEBSITES. BE READY TO SPEND SOME TIME SEARCHING. TWO YEARS AGO I ADOPTED WHAT I WAS TOLD WAS AN ASIAN BOX TURTLE. AFTER ABOUT 6 HOURS OF RESEARCH ONLINE I DISCOVERED THAT IT IS A MALAYAN BOX TURTLE. IT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO CORRECTLY IDENTIFY IT SO YOU CAN BE SURE WHAT TO FEED IT, WHAT KIND OF HABITAT IT NEEDS, INCLUDING DAY AND NIGHT TEMPERATURES, AND WHETHER OR NOT IT NEEDS A PLACE TO SWIM OR JUST WATER TO DRINK.

Take him/her to a local pet shop or google turtles online.

---

without a pic or any information to go on, its impossible to tell you

Without a pic it's almost impossible to help. Give some details!
