Great pics of Axle! He's such a handsome turtle! How much does Axle weigh?
I'll go weigh him right now...
*fishing Axle out of the pond*
*wrapping Axle in towel*
*running up the stairs*
*removing Towel*
*setting Axle on scale*
*reading scale*
*Axle running away*
*stuffing Axle back into the towel*
*running down the stairs into my room*

He weighs about 11 pounds. I want to take him to the vet so I can get a more accuret weight.
