That's great! Be careful mom doesn't give him extra treats when he begs.

Haha My turtle had a mini-excursion to my In-law's because I needed someone to look after her for about a week. I gave specific instructions to feed every other day, and my Father-in-law decided that wasn't enough food and fed her EVERYTIME she begged. Needless to say she came back heftier, and her begging was outta control for the 1st few days at home.

I spoiled my turtle when he first came. I felt bad for him because my dog was attacking him in the driveway. That's how I got him. He had about 2 weeks of all the food he wanted until I found this forum. Unless you have a begging turtle you'd never imagine one.
