Hello!

[twidgetmom]

I am the mom of a turtle/tort crazy teenager. We currently have 6 of the little guys. We have 2 snappers, 2 red ears, a box? Turtle and a red footed tort.
I am joining to learn more about the critters, their habitats and habits and gain knowledge to help me related to my son passion/obsession with them.
I personally love the red foot. The water turtles don't visit very well. Schnitt, the red foot will actually perch on my shoulder and nuzzle my neck.
Any helpful hints will be appreciated.

Welcome to all. Sharing in what your children are interested in is so very important.

it would be both nice and cool if i could get just ONE family member of any kind to join me in my passion for reptiles. i get s**t all the time from my family for being into reptiles like i am and it sucks, its hard, but i would never give up my two kids just because i get a hard time. i get that its not everyones cup of tea, but at least respect their interests. seeing this makes me feel better though, im glad to see at least someone gets that kind of bond i long for. in the meantime, i'll keep typing away on my phone.

Hi and welcome. Aha! You're hooked! That redfoot has stolen your heart with those little nudges on the neck. That's all it takes sometimes. We welcome you and your son.
