Off-topic: Look at this turtle!

[Kevlar]

I had a turtle when I was in high school, man do they stink! They are cool but not very playful. I love the idea of an outdoor enclosure with catch and release, but that wouldn't work so good up here.....

We go off topic all the time around here.

That is the cutest fricken' turtle I have ever seen. Thanks for the share.

In captivity they rely on you to change the water periodically, considering they have to swim in their own shit. Eating their natural forage creates a lot of amonia. Even a diet of Reptomin "formulated turtle chow" will still foul the water fairly quickly without some sort of filtration or H2O changes.
I used to breed turtles when I was kid, No the offspring didn't look like me ? I had a regular farm, I raised them and sold them to various pet stores and even shipped them across state.

OMG.....that thing is SWEET. Im suprised he didnt hide!
