Habitat - Outdoor :: maybe an idea to catch outdoor pet turts?

Ponds and other outdoor enclosures.

Post Posted: Tue Sep 12, 2006 9:47 pm   maybe an idea to catch outdoor pet turts?

I don't know how safe or effective this product is, but I came across it looking for tank covers. I don't think I like it's original intent, (who would nt want turtles in their pond?) :wink: but it might be a way to get very skitty turtles indoors for the winter?I think you'd need to be careful to check it often to minimize danger, but again, I am unsure. maybe someone more seasoned in turtle husbandry will know?

I'm not sure of it's effectiveness, or how safe it is, but I noticed the price on it! Considering someone would probably only use it once or twice a year, it's bit pricey.

I was thinking it was very expensive. I think building one is a great idea. I personally don't have outdoor turtles, but I have run across people having trouble catching their pets. I think it might work?
