Truffle is a cute little guy; probably still small enough to deserve the extra pellet now and then :)

Welcome Truffle! Still a baby, so you might not want to handle her too much and let her rest, eat and adjust.

Yes she is :D
Yeah, sometimes I can't resist in front of her request for extra food. Her favorite food is raw fish meat but I try to feed her with pellet (as main food), shrimp and sometimes boiled egg plus calcium+D3 supplement.
But I worry about fat amount of the foods in extra pellet. Her diet has lots of proteins and nutritions and it helps quick growth, and you know, quick growth needs more calcium absorption and it might cause shell problems if she don't absorb enough calcioum.
That's why sometimes I have to resist in front of her request for extra food just for her health :D

Thank you :D
Yes, sir, I know. I rarely handle her. perhaps once a week.
She enjoys living at her vivarioum, resting, basking, eating and swimming.
The good news for me is she can recognize me. I had experience of keeping RES before Truffle, all of them were escaping from human and they were eating food from my finger/hand rarely, but truffle not only eats from my fingers but also she slept on my hand at least three times, and does not escape from my family and I. Whenever she sees one of us, stares at us and wants more food :))

By the way ... I call it "she" whereas gender of RES turtles can not be detected at this age! :)) Just a guess from preliminary signatures (nails and under the tail).

About 30 liter with a water-filter with capacity of pumping/filtering 800 liter per hours.
