Okay thank you yes it's very small I dont know much about aquatic turtles and it was a bit of a impulse buy but it was literally in a closed Mason jar so I just couldn't leave it
I need help with my yellow belly slider, I was at a local flea market today and a person had this single baby turtle in absolutely horrible conditions I could not bring myself to leave it there it came with some tortoise diet and I keep other reptiles so I have alot of supplies on hand for heat...
