Re: Baby turtle update

you need to go to a pet store to get the UVB bulbs...regular flourescent bulbs don't have it. my 2 red ears have grown well on the turtle pellets I get at the store. I do give them crickets and fish chunks also tho. I put them out in the little cheap kiddie pools during the summer. they love it!!

Re: Baby turtle update

oh... wait i forgot... i'm only going to have her one summer... i guess there's no need for a pool.... but the good news is... i think my aunt already has one!!! she's always wanted a turtle... i'll just have to keep telling myself that it'll have a better life with her... she'll have so much free time to spend caring for it... she has all the right stuff... she has enough space to get it an even larger tank... to grow up in...

Re: Baby turtle update
