have been able to successfully get started with
my first pets ever, my 2 RoudyRES:
Tommy & Sincere
OMG I rescued these little guys from my GF's family. Her parents
got them for her little brother. When I came to their house, they were
in the bathroom in a rubbermaid container filled with water.
The food
floating in the tub from the pet store were enormous, the window was
always open and it was February/March, so it was super cold. IT WAS
HORRIBLE, they hardly moved when I went to the bathroom and they
were shown no kind of attention. After about a month or so I began doing
research about RES. This website helped me confidently get the Turts out
of there ASAP, and make a comfortable transition into their new home.
Now that they are comfortable, their personalities are starting to show.
I named them after the characters of the movie Belly; who were like
brothers, but shared a completely different outlook about LIFE. This is true
about my RES. Tommy (who im sure is a male) is aggressive and takes
no Sh** from anyone and enjoys life from a static position. Sincere (who
I feel is a female) on the other hand avoids confrontation, and explores
life from all directions. Tommy and Sincere are both wonderfully active
RES, they're great companions and I'm glad I took 'em in to my home.
