Thanks for the update and glad to see the turtles are doing well! It looks like they were rushing you when you took that one pic. ?
They always rush me when I go near the pond. Turtles are proper glutens, always hungry and god help you if your fingers are in the way when they come rushing you at feeding time.Thanks for the update and glad to see the turtles are doing well!

Can't edit this now and just noticed I wrote glutens instead of gluttons?They always rush me when I go near the pond. Turtles are proper glutens, always hungry and god help you if your fingers are in the way when they come rushing you at feeding time.
Your pond is absolutely gorgeous!Here are a few pics from my pond.
All these turtles are rescues and I have 11in total.
Some arrived with a few health issues but are all doing well.

This little guy is extremely friendly.
Every morning at around 6.00am he makes the long crawl to my back door.

I always give him a snack and off he goes with it back to the pond.
Captive turtles get a bad deal and are often disgarded or kept in the wrong conditions. This is a real shame as they are intelligent creatures with great character.

Sounds nice, wish my wife would go for an indoor pond. I'm not nearly courageous or stupid enough to make that suggestion.That would break my heart! I lucked out and my husband put a pond in our dining room no where near as gorgeous as yours but my Terrapins love it
