"Bean" (the Turtle)

This is "Bean" (Ryan named him). We have had him since May?? I think. He showed up in our back yard & made a perfect new little part of our family. We have a wonderful "Multi-Dollar" condo for him (wanted to say Multi Million, but that would be lying..lol), but he keeps burying himself in the substrate and refusing to eat, which was causing him to loose weight. So he and his good friend "Sam" got moved into -prison- to force them to act like turtles should in the summer. Their condo is currently under construction as we think the UVA & UVB bulbs are too far away from the babies causing them to think its winter?? So until the upgrades are complete they will just have to like prison. They seen to actually enjoy it though....the sunny window seems to be keeping them happy....




No animals were harmed in the making of this video. The babies are very used to Ryans little hands being in the cage with them.
Yes-Ryan washed his hands as soon as filming was complete - so no children were harmed either! :)

Alli found a tiny thumb-sized turtle when she was about 4 years old. We kept it for about 5 years then gave it to the school. He grew to be about 3" so he was always a baby.

What do you feed your turtles?
