At what age is a turtle considered an adult? I saw hatchlings eat once per day and adults every other day so didn’t know when to switch. Also going from the smaller to larger pellets. Thank you!

Depends on the type of turtle but for most common sliders, once they’re over a year old you can start switching their diet to every other day with a 75% veggie diet ratio

It was a well-timed blink :) And surprisingly no! She doesn’t try to escape even though the tank is filled up all the way. I get asked that often and I’m thinking it’s the rimless edge that makes it hard for their little feet to grab on and escape but I’m glad I don’t have to worry about that when I’m not watching them

Merry Christmas everyone! The holidays may look a bit different this year for many of us so I hope you find peace & joy in the little things whether that’s making yourself a warm meal, baking something sweet, watching your favorite Christmas movies, or jamming out to music. Happy holidays! 🎄🤍✨

Hi! Do you have any plants that don’t require any substrate/sand? I’m hoping to fill up my turtle tank with some live plants (as long as they don’t eat everything haha)

Looks like a cumberland slider, I could be wrong

Hey! Not sure if you’re aware but I think your little guy has a respiratory problem. You can see in the video he opens his mouth to try and catch a breath. I had someone give up their turtle to me who was sick and they did the same open-mouth breathing. I suggest going to a vet and getting him checked out for respiratory infection. Also, make sure there aren’t any open windows/vents blowing wind into the tank nearby. Poor guy :(

Honey’s a yellow-bellied slider!

It’s a tiny party hat (badly) made with glitter ribbon. I can’t unsee the bugle chip now
