My boyfriend bought him for me as an early Christmas present at the Columbus show last weekend. I haven't posted yet because I'm an idiot and lost my gecko and I've been freaking out. But he's soo cute, and I'm soo excited! He's really active and eating well already. He's about an inch and a half long. He's really active and eating well already. I think his name's going to be Yin-Yang or something, because the design on one of his scutes looks like one. He's my first water turtle. I wanted a snapper, but didn't feel comfortable having one shipped because it's so darn cold!
It seems like there are a lot of DBT keepers around here. Do you guys use a substrate for yours? I have him in a bare Rubbermaid now, except for a basking platform and a couple of fake plants, and I'm looking for suggestions. Should I leave it bare, or put something down?
I'm looking at Southern Painteds next. (Always thinking of the next one )
