does anyone know the size of the turtles as when i go tomorrow to pick one up i dont want to have a large container and its only a little thing
WOW, congrats.... you are going to need to rearrange something at home at this rate, you have really had a reptile explosion at your place recently haven't you ! !
re: the size of the coastal it could be anywhere from a hatchy to ~10ft i'm sure if you ring they will give you an approximate size of the newcomer, but you're right, they should give a guestimate of their size,

Nah - he can take the kids - more room for reptiles - hahaa!
I like your thinking :lol:
if your newcomer is anything like mine they grow rapidly in the first 2 years. so start thinking of an adult enclosure . . . seeing as the kids are going with 'Him' one of their rooms would be ideal, -a security screen on the window so you can leave it open for ventilation, put some glass in the door, leave the bed so its got somewhere to hide, ... throw an old sink in there for a water bowl and your done, the ideal outside enclosure, inside !
Yep - definately. We already have quarantine in place for our 18mth diamond coz it was from a private seller, so we have the whole hand sanitiser thing happening at our place already.just remember they dont know where these snakes come from, QUARANTINE is most important.
We just got back from picking him up - he is a gorgeous thing - really placid & curious & closer to 1.8 metres than the 1 metre that they said. A bit bigger than our hatchies that's for sure!
He seems in really good condition - will try to feed him tonight & see if he takes an adult mouse as they have no idea when he's eaten last. Wish me luck!
Hi got my turtle from the ballot want to say thanks for putting on the ballot.
