Brilliant Dave!

Two females

Sternotherus oderatus - Common Musk Turtle

The one showing it's plastron (belly) is female

I still believe this is a wild turtle and not an abandoned pet.

Care/diet is very similar to that of the red eared slider. However, the turtle is native/naturalised to where you live - see if you can provide aquatic plants from the local waterways... you may want to consider releasing it.

As per previous post, River cooter, Pseudemys concinna ssp

River cooter, Pseudemys concinna ssp

These are P gorzugi

Rio Grande cooter = Pseudemys gorzugi

Have to say this doesn't appear to be one, but a nice looking turtle all the same
