I received my Cuora mouhotii today.
I am on high surveillance mood. Before, it didn’t seem active. Seems active before. I suspected maybe it cold. Until I bought a heat bulb. It ate some crickets too. Which had me more relieved.
I have a spare 10 gallon, what wattage bulb I should aim with a hatchling without being too hot. I have zoo med heat pad to place underneath, I was also thinking maybe attach to side since I was told underneath isn’t a good idea. 😥
Nothing special but a lone Cuora trifasciata. ☺️
If Jay from Turtles&Tortoise Inc. still has the remaining stocks left, I’m looking to buy one last one during my next two payday saved.
Today my mom saw my female European Pond Turtle out of the pond. She looks very dry and covered in spider webs.
I wetted her with cool water. But for now I placed her in a tub with some organic dirt. Hopefully she will lay but she feel slightly less heavy than before? So that might be a sign she...
Melie is my newest Spotted Turtle. She arrived today from a local breeder. I’m very happy with her. There might be 2 more additional hatchling I might receive from the breeder from his upcoming clutch of eggs. :p
Melie
All four of them.
Clememce
Neige and Lindy
These are the last pair available from Turtles&Tortoise Inc.
“ European Pond Turtle Lake Orhid locality”
I just need to figure out which subspecies they belong to. o_O
The female face may look bad. At least Jay admitted she has bad cosmetic look. I was able to get a discount on her. It look...
Clemence was my first Spotted Turtle. I wanted to upgrade all of my spotted turtles with a medium waterland tub. Since I realize Clemence is a male and I want to acquire more females. It be best if Clemence has his own setup not to harassed the future females. But in the mean time, I might...
I struggled to find a name for my Mauremys. I notice they were absent from the pond enclosure. It been three weeks with no sign of them. I ripped out the massive water lilies, removed some pond sediment to go find them. I was completely startled. That meant they are somewhere in the dense...
These precious babies came today. I’m very happy with theturtlesource.com
I have them temporarily out in the outdoor guppy pond. While I prep out their inside tub. Eventually they will be housed in a 55 gallon aquarium.
Their name are Esmeraude (The Nicaraguan Slider) and Calaveras (Belize...
Would 48” x 24” enclosure be fine for one Rhinoclemmys? I have space to dedicate a 55 gallon aquarium for Australian Rainbowfish biotope but I'm having cold feet to do place large aquarium of full water like that on a dresser. I’m thinking dedicating a suitable animal that either semi aquatic...
I just acquired these turtles from a vendor out in Las Vegas via phone order. I saw their ad on kingsnake classifies.
they have label them as European Pond Turtles “Iberian locality”.
But regardless of the photo of being blurry...my hunch they look like Mauremys Leprosa-Spanish Pond Turtles...
I am looking to make an outdoor Spotted Turtle enclosure in my shaded patio area. I am looking to move all three into there. So they can have access to natural sunlight permanently. There is a spot in the patio to fit perfectly a Medium Waterland tub. But I initially want Laguna Pond tub (The...
Are these Mauremys Rivulata or M. Caspica?

My other Spotted turtles. They have no name...want to wait until I know their sex.
Ganymede- Emys Orbicularis Galloitalica. I don't know the common...
I would one day like to have a vacation home in Las Vegas...I read that Nevada only allow one tortoise to be adopted per household/member? Is their any way to adopt more than one like adding my family members even if they won't be part of the my future las vegas residence home? :P
