new baby from Yvonne

[terryo]

We just got our new baby from Yvonne. I soaked him a little and put him in his new temp. home. He wasn't scared at all, just curious. I will post more pictures when Tim comes home from school. He is beautiful!! His eyes are so big, he reminds me of a Geomyda spengleri , Black-Breasted Leaf Turtle

Great. Nice to know you've got true and honorable friends.

Congratulations on your new baby Terry,
He is very cute , his enclosure looks really nice, he looks so cute all curious in the last pic

Even though he's not quite a year old, I was kinda' leaning towards him being a male because of the eyes. My male eastern has big buggy eyes so that he almost looks deformed. Also, the baby's eyes have a reddish tinge to them. I incubated at 86 degrees, so "he" should be female, but I'll bet he's male!

And I'm SO glad he arrived safely. I'm a nervous wreck when I ship turtles and tortoises. You just never know what might happen!

LOL......Well you are in charge of quality control and production. Not to mention the break in period and looks like you have a well run factory there. Nice looking baby and you were very kind to take care of Tim and Terry.

That's a cute little turtle, now I wish I had one of those too

I'm going to have to move someplace that has a big back yard.

I just saw this ad on Craig's List and wanted all three of them but no room right now.

When you buy that 2 acres of land you can buy them, but are you sure that Henry won't get jealous?

He’ll get over it.

I actually have an agent looking for property, he found me a three bedroom two bath home on ten acres about a 3 hour drive for 245K. I’m holding off, property value has not bottomed out yet IMO.

I'm not so sure that bigger one IS a sulcata.

Yvonne is this good? This morning he ate two pill bugs and was eating a cut up worm...see the picture...also some of the blood worms or whatever you call them. He didn't eat the turtle food though. I left some cut up strawberry and escarole chopped in his house.

Those eyes just crack me up.

 

[Yvonne G]

Aw-w! That is just so cute. I love those buggy eyes too. Yeah, that's how I feed them. Some kind of bug, worm or turtle pellet in the soaking water, then some kind of fruit and veggie all day long on the feeding tile in the habitat. I noticed with the little ones here that if I leave the fruits and veggies there overnight and they get dried and hard, the next day the babies seem to eat it better...dried and hard! Go figure!
