Posted: Tue Mar 15, 2016 10:52 am Hello everyone!
Hello everyone, my in laws brought us home a baby red ear slider from Florida, and I mean a baby! I have never owned a turtle before so I started doing a lot of research on mine. I quickly found out that it is illegal to sell turtles this small and found out how they do it at tourist attractions down south. At first I wasn't too happy about it but I went to my local pet store and told the guy my situation and he got me everything I need for the habitat. My in laws also got one for themselves but they kept him in the same little container that they bought it in! So they let me bring him home with mine. So now I have 2 baby RES and I think they are pretty happy in there new home. They are both eating very well and I am continuing to learn more about them every day. I found this forum and I had to join. So I just wanted to post a little about me and the newest addition to our family. I'm sure i will be pretty active on this site, and any tips any one could give me would be appreciated! Thanks everyone.
