Re: Yellow Bellied Slider

Hi guys! That was some storm! No power for nine days and we JUST got our cable back this evening...Couldn't even get anything on my phone..At least we only had a few shingles blow off of the roof, a LOT of tree and plant damage but the most important thing is that my fish and my turtle are okay..I h...

Re: Yellow Bellied Slider

Well, he's/she's still here! I just love this turtle so much. Finally coming up and looking at me when I feed the fish so I am able to throw food in his "feeding ring" and he gobbles it up...No fence though...If you saw my pond surroundings you would agree that aesthetically it would ruin...

Re: Yellow Bellied Slider

Oh he's not contained? Yes he might leave eventually especially if he can't get any food in your pond. Will be interesting to see how long he stays. I started putting in a few "Tetra turtle sticks" Not sure if he will get them or the fish will first...and yes, it will be interesting to se...

Re: Yellow Bellied Slider
