Gonzales is completely healed, swimming around like nothing ever happened. Took about 2 months.
********************************************
It's been a while since we've(I have to say we or the mrs. gets mad) posted some pics. I think the last pics we posted were of our no-tail/toe missing red-bellied cooter hatchling. (here)
Since then we've brought all our guys to the vet and they're all fine except for a few shell problems that are left over from improper lighting in their younger days.
I've also gotten ANOTHER new addition. The small petshop next to our house had a bunch of RES hatchlings in about a 5 gallon tank, there was one lone map turtle that was obviously quickly out growing the RES. Well to make a long story short the store couldn't handle as many as they had so they just gave me the map.
We've named him/her Shellbie:
Here's Pi the no-tail cooter:
Here's Gonzalez, he had a little accident on friday with the filter intake. He knocked it off and got his leg sucked up. I woke up to a sad turtle. don't worry I fixed the intake.
Here's Speedy, she's missing Gonzalez while he's being dry-docked:
Here's Pi and Shellbie's 55 gallon setup. I recently built new stands and hoods for both of my tanks.
Here's Speedy and Gonzalez's 75 gallon setup:
Here's our russian tortoise Fernando just waking up:
And finally there's Diamond...the best dog in the world =)
I have a 2 yo male turtle and a baby turtle 2-3 months old, I'm interested in knowing more about them,
