Hello, my friend found a few red-eared sliders at his restaurant, mixed in with the crawfish that were brought in to be cooked and served. Can you believe it??? So I got this adorable creature out of the deal....
I named him Asa, just because I like the name. He's about 2 inches long and seems to be healthy and adjusting well. Eats every chance he gets and 'follows' my finger through the tank as a sort of curious game. I will probably have lots of questions but just wanted to say hello initially. Glad to find this forum!

Oh my, the horror that Asa would have gone through had he not been found... D: :shock:

Glad you got your little guy!

Hi everyone! Thank you for the warm welcome! Yes, I think he's very special already (I've had him for 2 weeks now), and I'm so happy he was noticed by the kitchen staff. He's already basking, eating well, and even nibbles a dried cranberry if he gets bored. Yesterday he took off and hid behind my stove... for 4 hours.... *sigh* Totally worth it to watch him though! He looks like a little alien dinosaur!
