Protective

Hi im Michelle
I am in the uk .. and purchased Flash 10 days ago... I did post here with a few concerns a few days back , We still have no idea how old Flash is but he/she is 9mm long and weighs 73grams ...
We researched for ages ...but still we have made mistakes ...I think he/she is finally happy.
You think you are doing the right think consulting the experts at the pet shops who sell you sand based subs .... got it right now I hope as Flash is eating lots of plantains & dandelions ..weeing and pooping ...and drank when I bathed him yesterday.
I don't take getting a pet lightly.... when they come to me they are here come good or bad... sickness or health... and I stay awake at night worrying if they aren't well... I just hope Flash is with us for a long while.

Hi and welcome! Glad to hear that your tort is happy now. I don't believe anything pet store employees tell me about torts/turtles. Most haven't a clue.
