Hi all! There is a pet store on LI called BTJ’s Pet Shop. They keep their red eared sliders outside for the summer, inside for the winter. They had this really old turtle with a deformed shell. I tried to talk to the worker but they weren’t very friendly. I tested if it could swim and she just floated to another log. There was algae and plants growing all over her plastron and skin on the back of the body, because the wood basking logs were too small. She just sat there, looking depressed. This pet shop also is not very good. Like a typical pet shop-
-20ish baby sulcatas ina 10 gallon tank with alfalfa pellets without UVB. Male sulcatas roaming the store, ramming cages and fighting each other. 3 adult Russian tortoises in 40 gallon breeder with sprint tailed iguanas. If anybody is on LI, please visit this place and tell them it is wrong, or adopt(buy) the turtle. She is a sweetheart. Thanks everyone!
