turtle question

well turtle shack has a buy one get one free deal on ETPs...but ill look at turtle source.

Well I understand now why you were gonna go with them. I would say its ok if you were ordering a larger one but their hatchlings are usually sick. I forgot they do buy one get one free but thats only with red ear sliders. They seem to always be doing that though.

dont bring any of your turtles!!!! if you can leave fish at home for a week, then you can leave turtles at home!!! i have always left my two turtles home during vacations, i just put in about 10 rossy red minnows (usually eaten in 10hours) and a dissolving feeder for the sunfish and they are fine!!

Not true, you have left them at my house on more than one occasion. Also the dissolving feeders are a joke at best. Basically they are just chalk that pollutes your tank. I hire someone to come take care of all my animals (lizards and frogs need live food, and the automatic feeders always die when they are on the saltwater tank because of the salt creep from the eggcrate lid).

So your still willing to support an operation because the bigger Turtles they sell aren't "sick", and the smaller Turtles are?

Why not support someone that will sell you a healthy animal the first time and will support you after the sale?
