General Care Discussion :: When am I suppose to put two turtles together???

[liquidquin]

Hi... I'm a new member at RES.com... I have a male r.e.s called BUBA and a female r.e.s called Boney... both are put at seperate water tanks.. They are both below age one and very naughty... Can anybody advise me on when am I suppose to put those two together???

I would say never. If they're both 'naughty' you're just asking for trouble. Turtles do just fine living by themselves.

I agree with leaving them separate. You never know when they might decide they aren't going to get along. It could be right away, or it could be down the road. I don't know what 'naughty' means in terms of a turt, but it sounds like you aren't going to want them together.

How big are your turtles? I agree with Jen and Missi - keep them separate.
