Actually they are pretty cute aren't they

 

[hornet]

still a little shy, i'm feeding him in a separate tub to make sure he gets his share but only eats when he cant see me, such a little cutie

 

[bunnykin]

yeah I fed robert some of that turtle dinner but he didnt eat it till last night after i went to bed.... it worries me because I dont see him eat..... has yours come out of the water yet? .... does the uv actually penetrate the water ???

 

[hornet]

i havent seen mine out but he was on the edge of the basking platform, my guy it just eating blood worms atm and i see him eat them in the tank

 

[bunnykin]

robert uses the plants to hang onto but he doesnt use his platform at all .... I take him out everyday to dry him out.... he isnt as affraid of me anymore now in the inquisative stage i think ... for the first week i had him in a little 2ft tank until the big tank was ready and he seemed to eat infront of me all the time now not so much guess he isnt hungry when i feed him? Im so not used to turtles

 

[hornet]

might just be feeling insecure in the big tank?
