    Re: Baby turtle update

    I would probably try to cut them back some. Kinda looks like it could be a little painful. I've a baby yellow bellied slider. His are still normal hope they don't grow ginormous!

    Re: Baby turtle update

    are you sure it split or was he shedding off his old shell scoots to grow bigger? if his shell did spit sounds like you haven't been giving him a calcium supplement.. If his shell is spongie feeling it may be really bad..

    i got as new pic of all the adults & juveniles.. (they did this by them selves) We were cleaning our their 125g lol..





    Too cute not to post up.. The male RES has THE LONGEST neck that I've ever saw!! lol

    Re: Baby turtle update

    Oh I really hate to hear that!!! How much did you use to feed him?
    I so hope he will be alright!
    I usually feed mine a little bit everyday. They beg all the time like they are starving to death silly boogers.
