When he was still a baby; loves exploring haha

Yup his name is Dorothy which was given to him by the previous owner when he was thought to be a she, but I don't like changing names so it stays the same. He is 7 years old and I plan to find him a girlfriend this winter in hopes to get into the hobby of breeding herps by next summer.

After baby loggerhead turtles hatch, they wait until dark and then dart from their sandy nests to the open ocean. A decade or so later they return to spend their teenage years near those same beaches. What the turtles do and where they go in those juvenile years has been a mystery for decades. Marine biologists call the period the “lost years.”
