Those are very nice looking turtles. Do you plan to keep them outdoors all year when they are adults?

Thanks ALL!!!

Great question.. you played right into my hand Benjamin!

Absolutely.. since our winters seldom get into single digits F. And I have the perfect space for them with lots of shade and ground cover/growth.. etc.

I intend to run the little tiller thru here and throw in wildflower seeds and worms this spring.. looking from South to North -

And North looking South -

The total space can be 4' x 16'+ - those are Rose-of-Sharon in case anyone was wondering.. and the yellow hose leads to the "wand" spinkler in the middle of the redfoot patch!

Your plans look great! Are you going to dig any sort of pond or will you use large saucers for water?

They look great Terry! Flavomarginata are really beautiful turtles.

And i must say, I am excited to see that you are active on this forum. I have been reading your classifieds on fauna for years and you keep some really exciting stuff.

Yes..yes and yes - doesn't mean I've lost my 'first-luv' for redfoots Terry.

Thanks all...
