OMG!!

You give me a quarter, I'll kick the thief's butt for you.

I would contact the police, if it's legal for you to have them in your area, that is.

The person or people who took them are going to try to sell them, if they haven't already. If you do find your turtles, make sure you have a picture of all of them, clear pictures, and even a picture of you with the turtles if you can get one, as proof that they are yours. Not to be silly, but the empty pond in your backyard is a bit of proof within itself. No one has a turtle pond in their backyard without turtles for the hell of it.

Good/bad news Neighbor found 3 painted turtles in his pool. There mine! It is a miracle. Anyway they almost drowned. Couldnt get out so there all very weak. Thank god neighbor hasnt put any chemicals in his pool since last year. So they should be good.

Idk where the last turtle is but he and his wife, my parents and me searched his property for her. No luck but at this point im very hopeful she might turn up.

Male painted turtle looks wrecked though. His shell looks like hell.

Idk what happen to him? Im just really happy right now. Im so glad to have them 3 of them back. I honestly had given up hope.

I can't imagine what that's like, but I'm so glad you got them back. I was saddened to hear you lost them. I hope you find the final turtle.
