in a house
My gf found a baby turt maybe a lil bigger than half dollar, she said it looks like a snapper but she hasent brought it over yet. I know they get big but what kind of setup should i have to house this lil guy?
 
he is injured? if not, leave this guy in the wild. snappers are not easy turts to care for, especially if they are wild.
 
Good for her for finding it but it must be put back into the wild where it belongs. Since you obviously dont know anything baout them, this makes the situation worse. Let it go. Do some (ALOT) of reasherch and the decide on if you want one. Its better for you and her.
 
She found it on the highway..... I dont know alot thats why i'm asking.
 
Or feed him to my Arowans .. syke....

I'll just put him into the pond behind my house than.
 
good idea, it is a big natural pond right? He would do a lot better there. It isn't smart to take animals from the wild.
 
People do it all the time, Juan does ( Pbass )

people who sell wild fish :)

The pond is probably 1 mile long and wide. I got a 4lb large mouth out of it once when i was like 10 but havent ben in awhile. Want me to take a pic?
