Here is hatchling Ecko basking

Both feet in the water...


One foot up..


Up goes the other one


This set-up is just for now. His 15 gallon is soon to be ready. I'll have closer pics to show his eggtooth and his yolk sac split

Ecko - August 12 - 20
I'll miss you

Very cute--his head looks so big compared to the size of his shell (love the way they look).

So cute!!

Tiny turts are so cute, I can hardly remember what Spanky looked like when he was that small - it was sooo long ago!! Enjoy every moment!!

I try not to look at the babies when I go to the petstore. They are so darn tempting..

Tempting isn't the word for it! My gf thinks I am mad spending some much money on my RES, and also the time I have started spending on this forum!

BUT even she can't resist a baby turt... over the past week or so she has been pestering me about getting at least another one as we seen them in our local pet shop. (as per usual, they are in tiny tanks and I would like to take them home and look after them better - but I just don't have the space)

I saw a hatchling cooter in a tank with a ton of RES at teh petstore.... he almost came home with me

cooter's are beautiful! not saying i don't think RES are.. but if when I bought Willy, had I had the choice, I would have bought a cooter. hands down.

but I still love my RES. :]

Thats a really cute turtle!
