Camera enriches the shells, in real life they arent that vivid.
The two yellow (M/F) are really socaial. The third brown skin one is a little shy. But she is very pretty.
Personalities in turtles.....I am now enlightened and it is awesome.
And in the past 3 days, each has had 6 worms, Carrots, and a little banana. I was worried about initial eating struggles. I am sure they will come sometime. Yellows eat freely, shy one likes her own little space, and me to back off a bit.
mpacc said:Originally from Virginia I belive. I adopted them from a reptile(snakes) loving family in Nevada. Not sure of the validity on that, but I trust them, met them at an expo last year. We talked about me just getting one, somehow I ended up with the whole clan;]
mpacc said:They suggested to keep them up till spring going outside. They didnt burmate them this year, because of needing to find a home for them. But they kept them outdoors in NV and when they lived back east. I assume they hibernated them because of the outdoor enclosure.
It is too late to attempt hibernation? They all seem healthy and are BAR, (bright/alert/responsive)term from my Raptor Rehab/Rescue days.
I have them in a 55gal tub, seems cramped for now. They will go outside come spring, 5x12 (could go a little bigger too) pen.
