I can’t even see them! The water is so dirty lol
@Therobloxhulabee Maybe she’s preparing for wintersleep? They don’t eat (much) then to empty their insides. Usually they prepare for wintersleep when temperature drops below 17 – 18 °C. Hope it helped.
Can you help me? My turtle wont eat and its been days. She just goes under the hay and stays there at the end of the day without taking a bite.
Mr. Cole (tim)

Havn’t you ever seen lake water?

Hey Tim, no wonder I haven’t seen a turtle in years, they’re all in captivity.
Would you consider releasing a few.
i dont see a spot where they can bask???
he said like hi im ten balls
cmon you guys, everyone has their own opinion on how to take care of turtles
Actually slapthatassgirl, sometimes being filthy is good! The filth your thinking of isn’t actually filth, it’s algea, and red eared sliders enjoy munching on that! So when you think it’s filth, the turtles think it’s great and food!
that dosent got any sun light n its filfthy
Thats dumb get it an aquariam with a pond that is half the tank then the other half is dry with there food n stuff that will make them happy
Um r u forgeting they r animals? Animals live out side. All u have to do is put up a chicken wire fence so that dogs or somthing dosent mess with them.
you can buy a tank. put light bulbs on top of the tank.
u are talking out of your ass man! keep them out side what the fuck are u thinking
also its good to make the water 2-4 feet deep for like that they can swim away! and also its good to have tunnels to go in to run away!
yea it’s true usually birds do it, so it is still possible to keep them outside as long as you have a fence on top keeping birds away and lets the sun shine through.
SOme animal will come and eat your turtle if you keep it out side
if u keep one inside then ssomething lamp to tank i do…
thank you
A big enough aquarium (the rule of thumb for gallons is “10 gallons per inch of shell”). Or an indoor pond.
I would definitely put a fence because it might run away. I have seen people use the pine garden edging that is semi-circular logs joined together and stood on end. It is available from most hardware stores and is inexpensive. I hope this helps.
how would you keep 1 inside.
