Thanks LeAnn. The new little one ate a couple earth worms last night and pooped. She/he seems to have a outgoing personality and isn't afraid of much. These are all good things.

I've been asked by many people if I will get another snapping turtle. My answer has always been the same in that I think Tank is enough. Today, things changed. I was visiting a local Tractor...
