I'm the only one at home so I do the feeding and the nearest vet is in the next town. Anything that you could recommend to prevent them from catching the cold would help. Thanks.

Saw some adorable terrapins at a local fishplace, unfortunately the staff weren't too knowledgable.

Please recommend some websites that give information for people thinking about getting terrapins / turtles.

Cheers. :D

What turtle is good with children, fairly inexpensive, easy to take care of, and not that expensive? Also, I'd prefer land turtles, opposed to the ones that need to swim in water 24/7.

Also, are turtles safe? I mean by both a disease and friendlyness standpoint?

I poke around trying to get it free with the tongs , but its mouth is open more on one side than the other also i gave her some water thinking she might be dehydrated.. im very concerned as i know they are very fragile. I think it is loose and she is looking tired i wanna let her rest tonight . id take her to the vet but money is tight and not the perfect time for me.... is there anyway she will recover from this at all. Her name is roxy and she was showin some amazing brown spots on her while this was going on never seen her so beautiful would be a tradgety to lose her .......Mike From New York

We got two baby red eared in the mail today, via air shipment. When they arrives they were not adequately packed and very cold. I immediately put them under a basking light on the sand int he tank we had ready for them. One became super active and has been in and out of the water. The other however just sits onthe sand basking. If you put him in the water, he climbs right back out. We were worried about his eyes. One barely opens and the other doesnt look developed. Is this normal is hatchlings or should we be concerned?
