Hi there! I'm new to the forums and thought I'd say Hi!

I have 2 turtle babies, a YBS / RES cross named Frick! and Radar

I used to have 2 other turtles but they got sick and died due to a vitamin deficiency. They lived to be 4 years old and I was heartbroken. That's what happens when you listen to the instructions of the people in the pet store without doing your own care research.

I've joined these forums and other turtle forums to do research for how to care for my two new little ones. So I'll be doing a lot of poking around here!

Welcome. Hope the info here is helpful. What kind of set-up are your turtles in?

Welcome to the forum!

Welcome to the forum! You will find lots of good suggestions and information on proper care such as tank size, water quality, feeding, lights, filters, the whole works! Read the stickies and the general care site and that should get you on the right track.

Welcome, Breigh! My mother-in-law is Dutch and moved back to Holland from the States about 7 years ago. We're here to help if we can, so let us know of any questions you may have.

I have my turtles in a good setup now I belong to another turtle forum as well (Turtle Times) and they have been incredibly helpful and informative. I found this site while looking for additional info and thought I'd sign up to get to know some more turtle lovers

Here is the setup I have my babies in now:

Those are some great pics and your turts are adorable! I miss mine being that small. I also love your show decoration!
