What kind of turtle is this?
My boyfriend found this turtle at his work. He works at a plat where they dry rice. He found it in the warehouse all dusty and alone. Anyway does anyone know what kind of turtle it is and what should i buy it to eat and what kind of habitat should it live in. Is it a water turtle or a land turtle. Thanks in advance.
Here is the link to the turtles pictures:

Well if this helps i live in Northern california up by Chico. 90 miles north of Sacramento.
Yes, it is hard to tell from the pictures. However, considering that you live in California, you should consider that it might be a Western Pond Turtle, the only aquatic turtle native to Ca. And yes, the males do have very long tails. Check out the range map and the baby turtle on CaliforniaHerps website.
BTW - this species is in decline, and it is protected and cannot be kept without a permit from the California Dept. of Fish & Game.
A look at what is currently available on eBay
