[QUOTE="ctmom05, post: 694351, member: 2901"] we have several turtles that we inherited from our son, for the time being. different kinds of turtles have different needs - how about checking with a localvet, by phone, for advice on how to care for yours? our box turtle is a dry land animal, altho he has a pool within his large habitat to meet his water needs. he eats cottage cheese. the painted turtles are in a large tank with water & docks they can climb up onto when they want to get out of the water. if you have an aquatic turtle, it needs to have it's water cleaned from time to time, or have a filter. our painteds eat a diet of commercially prepared food & an occasional cricket .. .. .. like any other pet, turtles are a commitment. you need to be careful about keeping them for just awhile, I don't think they do well being domesticated & then released back to the wild [/QUOTE]
