I have recenty built an outdoor pond 300 gallons -+. I was making for my fish
I then got myself a permit to catch turtles.
Now I have 6 texas cooter turtles. One of the turtles is bigger than the others 6 inches the rest are under 4 inches the smallest one being about 2.5 inches.
I have been reaserching turtles and am feeding lettuce and reptomin pellets evey 3 days. I have not seen them on the basking rock yet only had a couple days.
One of my turtles has eggs and I will be putting a fence around the pond and a way for them to get out of the water. Also going to start adding some wild mollies or mosquito fish for them to catch and eat.
I plan on getting some rio grande cooters and releasing some of the texas cooters. I'm going to brownsville and have a private lake near a gun range that the guy is going to let me catch some turtles. I also want to get a wild pair of Rio Grande Cichlids but that's another topic.
