Hello everyone. I am Rachelle. I am getting two turtles tomorrow. One a red slider and the other a wood turtle along with their habitats (they each have their own tanks). Their owner was unexpectedly given orders to go to texas. I am glad I found this site. I have learned a ton already just by reading the posts. Now if I could only find info on the wood turtle.
Welcome to the forum... So glad that you've found the info you're needing. (Hope you are able for your wood turtle as well.) Just let us know if you have any questions. We're always happy to help.
thanks for the welcome everyone. I picked up the turtles and needless to say both are in setups not right for them. The RES is in a 20 gallon aquariam that had 3 gallons of little rocks at the bottom (which we took out) and only half filled with water (we filled it up.) The wood turtle turned out to be a central american wood turtle who is only in a 10 gallon aquariam. So she (hubby named her clyde) is getting a new home first and then the RES (I named him Drexler) will get a new set up next month. I forgot to take before pictures of Drexler's home but will get some of what it looks like now that we have fixed it up a bit and post them later today.
