Hi! First RES and new to forum
Posted: Tue Oct 22, 2013 10:40 pmI've just acquired a red eared slider from a friend of mine. He has a small male and this one was too aggressive towards the smaller male. I've had prior experience with reptiles, I raised a 5ft male green iguana so I stepped up to this challenge. My RES's name is Mia, she is almost 5 inches long and seems very active with an extremely healthy appetite and seems to tolerate with our children well.
I immediately purchased a 65 gallon aquarium and proper lighting. We are feeding her reptimin pellets and veggies, with occasional meal worms and crickets.
Here's her first mug shot. She's really proud of the rock she is on!
I've already found a wealth of knowledge here, and look forward to learning more!
