I probably wont do this for a while but i was thinking about getting another turtle to keep Kaya company. Kaya is pretty big, im not sure how old she is but shes about about 8-9 inches. She has lived alone for her entire life, so im worried that if i get another turtle, especially a smaller one, that she would be aggressive towards it or even kill it. People say that theyre solitary but i never see them alone in the wild, so im wondering if she might appreciate some company when i get a bigger tank.
When i get a bigger tank (hopefully very soon, been checking craigslist and the paper everyday) if i do decide to add another turtle would it be okay to add a smaller turtle, or should i keep them seperate until they are more similar in size? Also would it be safe to add a different kind of turtle (like a diamond back) or would she have better chances of making friends with another RES?
