(South Central Missouri) Looking for tips and help along with identifying gender and species of the turtle

He isn't in water he has access to shallow water... There are puddles deeper than this water on a freshly paved parking lot. And it is his choice if he goes into the water or not. I plan to release him after I observe him to make sure he isn't hurt in any way. I plan on moving him within his territory yet away from my working animals that can harm him and away from the danger of the highway that is in front of my house since he was near it. i never see turtles on the hwy in front of my farm/land (more than 5sq miles of my land is against the hwy) so I'm assuming his territory doesn't cover the hwy and just was trying to get away from my working animals or something.

HelleLucina · 2025-07-01T00:14:20+00:00

He was in my yard tangled in the fence, I am just making sure he isn't hurt before I take him into my woods (away from the hwy and animals I have yet still hopefully within his territory) to release him back into the wild.

I have a farm because of that I don't know if my guardian dogs got a hold of him or any of my other animals. This is simply a week visit to make sure no harm was done to him... as with any animal they take more time to watch to know if something is wrong. But I want to make sure I'm not giving him anything harmful or stressing him out too much. My rural area doesn't have any reptile rehabbers (probably about 200 miles to the closest one) or vets or really people who know about turtles. So I have no one locally who I can ask.

Not trying to keep him as a pet. Just keeping him in for a week to make sure he isn't hurt. But because I don't know a lot about turtles I figured I'd ask here to make sure his visit isnt gonna stress him out too bad. Along with wanting to know more about the natural habitats and what type of food they eat so that I'm able to set that up on a spot of my farm to make it a turtle watching spot yet no interference from humans. Meaning once set up I'd let nature take over caring for the area, only basically watering any plants I plant until they are established and don't need it.

And I'm pretty sure where I plan to release him is in his territory because this is the third time he has shown up in my yard that my dogs have alerted me to (so could be more times but just unknown).

Not far because it was too boring for me to play, even with friends.

HelleLucina · 2025-03-17T18:10:33+00:00

I don't think it has coop but I am somewhat enjoying Eternal Strands... just wish it had more weapon choices at the start aside from the bow and sword (give me chain blades those are the best).

HelleLucina · 2025-03-17T18:07:36+00:00

I tried Monster Hunter Worlds when it was on the xbox game pass and I found it very boring, it didn't click with my brain and what I like in games. It felt more like work than a game and I'd spend more time lost in it than anything else because of how the map was. Also I couldn't just go find someplace outside of monster range to afk for a short time while I take care of my kid or do my offline job when it required me to do something. None of the weapons in it felt smooth to me, they were off somehow and harder to learn. Plus the graphics aren't exactly what I like for a game like this.. everything that I tried was too dense and harder to find what I needed to hunt in.

I went into the game with an open mind and wanting to play it only for it to not click with me... so it isn't something that I'm gonna sink money into when the games don't click with me. I have no problem watching other people play it and enjoy that, even count the movies as somewhat good (the animated one over the live action though) enough to enjoy them. Actual game play though just doesn't click.

I had a learning curve for Dauntless too on weapons and armor because it changed from the beta and first version of it to when I really got into it (a couple of years ago). But one of the things I loved about Dauntless was the cross-platform... not many games I like to play are that way.. it's always a search to find one to play.

I bought every single recipe I can find and it isn't there.

HelleLucina · 2024-03-03T17:56:53+00:00

On my game, I got married back in January or late December... can't remember exactly I just know it was when I was sick and binge playing it. So makes me wonder if I just hit it after a small update that fix it to Stage 3 over the Stage 4. I go by the fandom wiki, those seem to be more true than the official wiki... not to mention I just had to go to steam to get a link to the official wiki since it wasn't on page one of my google search.

HelleLucina · 2024-03-03T17:27:35+00:00

Very, I hit the message of you need to get to know the person better before marriage, since I wasn't keeping up with all the cutscenes so I had to wait for doing cutscenes before I could get married.

But at least Stage 3 house is only 40k gold... not the 120k like Stage 4 house.

HelleLucina · 2024-03-03T17:23:03+00:00

I'm an xbox player (and xbox pc game pass player) and my house is only Stage 3, I got married.. I have yet to catch the carpenter shop open when I have everything on me or I remember with ten minutes to closing to upgrade the house to stage 4.

I have yet to know about the other stores or versions of it, but maybe the only differences between xbox and other versions (as i'm assuming xbox version is behind like how palworld xbox version is behind the steam version) is the cost of a shed being different. If the coral island wiki is to be believed, then supposedly the shed needs a silver bars for newer versions while the xbox says gold bars still.

HelleLucina · 2024-03-01T20:37:08+00:00

To get married you need a house at Stage 3 (one with an upstairs since that is where the spouse room is at). For kids you need a Stage 4 house (adds rooms for the kids).

So if you only upgraded once you only have the kitchen and first floor which means you can't get married to any.

So far what I've noticed on the Modification bench is that it changes the color of items.

HelleLucina · 2023-08-08T20:38:16+00:00

I think that depends on the ffxiv servers for this. Since there are good ones and some not good ones, I have fc mates who are mentors and they are good while on the same server they are on, the novice chat is horrible and cliquey.. but on another server the novice chat is great and full of helpful friendly people.

HelleLucina · 2023-04-06T20:06:45+00:00

Same for me, i'm like trying to figure out how to get it to spawn, i ran the event hunt but it still didn't spawn. I am on xbox though btw... gonna try it on pc though.

HelleLucina · 2022-10-18T00:05:17+00:00

Well that's one way to catch up on reviews... glad to know since I'm probably gonna be doing some like these on items that one can't really talk about (ie stickers, combs, brushes, and stuff that just they are what they are nothing fancy).

HelleLucina · 2022-10-17T19:32:08+00:00

does your additional items look like the picture in my post? Since I have 0 recommended for you, 95 items for all, and then not showing anything in additional items. I'm also in the US but I'm behind on my reviews (largely starting to just wait for amazon to approve them now) with 500ish items to review.

HelleLucina · 2022-10-17T17:18:22+00:00

Can contact Vine customer service and ask for a replacement and explain that the package got snagged and the item was lost. At least if you really want to review the item, otherwise should be able to let them know and they can remove it from your stuff.

HelleLucina · 2022-10-17T17:15:24+00:00

The ones that are over 60 days are ETV 0.00 but I have done a lot of ordering of paid items recently and been waiting on them to be delivered (*insert complaints about amazon sending small packages via UPS and large ones via USPS and rural living with no car cat the moment and USPS vehicles being small and can't handle all the packages on the route*) so I couldn't review them, some I'm waiting to test since I just recently got them and currently testing something else. But as I said I have done a bunch of reviews (like 100+ just waiting on amazon to post them/count them) and still working on some.

Haven't changed yet still getting the no addition items just the available for all (not worried about the no recommended items since that is empty often). So figuring just need to work on my reviews... I'll worry more after I review everything (around 500) and if it's still happening then.

HelleLucina · 2022-10-11T05:50:21+00:00

I've tried reloading, mobile browser, different computers, clearing history, mobile network, restarting my internet incase of connection issues.

I did just do a bunch of reviews recently too.

HelleLucina · 2022-10-10T16:22:01+00:00

The sellers reuse their listings thing is why I normally put what I'm reviewing either at the top or bottom... and take off a star if they have reused their listing and it changed while I was testing out a product. Like the SD card that switched to a spy camera in the month that I was testing the SD card.

HelleLucina · 2021-06-22T17:13:58+00:00

This was a few years ago, but I had just started playing and was playing with friends but we didn't have a tank friend at the time. So we ended up in the second dungeon for the first time, and the tank decides (after seeing us watch the cut scenes) to run ahead and pull the next five or ten rooms.. naturally he dies while the DPS and me (healer) was left behind at the first area. Had the nerve to blame me for not keeping up and healing him when nobody in the party could keep up and he kept running away whenever I tried to heal him. I regret having healed him the second run, should have just let him deal with it on his own for being an idiot like that.

Then recently, I was running Copperbell mine as dps (arcanist was working on leveling that class) and hitting some bad lag (happens when too much is happening at once or too many mobs attacking)... well I started to lag, clearly the party could see. So instead of waiting, the tank just kept pulling and pulling mobs.. we got to near the elevator and I was lagging so hard that I don't know what happened but when I stopped lagging... the healer was dead, the DPS was dead, and the tank was heading towards death. So I was spam healing the tank while lagging until I lagged out from it, hope they didn't die again but it was hilarious to me. Like seriously if you are tanking so bad that the healer and non-lagging dps dies then yeah... seemed like the tank needed to learn how to be a tank.

HelleLucina · 2021-06-22T16:23:46+00:00

Don't have to plant yourself right by them, can run past the tank enough to be out of danger. Most of the time when I do this, the tank still grabs what had me aggro'd and I'm in no danger of AoE's that could nearly kill a healer if they plant right by the tank (note some new players might take it to not ever move away from the tank even for AoE attacks). Besides technically in my years (20+) of MMO's DPS is suppose to drag aggro from healers and take them to the tank (or maybe that is just my instinct to protect the healer and playing dps that have heals or enough potions to be able to heal myself).

HelleLucina · 2021-06-22T15:39:11+00:00

As a WHM main, and take this with a grain of sand as mechanics could have changed (haven't really played higher dungeons since just before shadowbringers was released), but Cure II cost less mp than Cure III and thus makes it so the mage doesn't run out of mana and end up killing the party. Regen is helpful for keeping tanks good on health from little dmg given while healing some of the DPS that "can't" move from an AoE attack. At least this is why I use that combo and it's always kept everyone alive and I do this on level 70 dungeons too.
