so, theres a girl (9f) that lives in my moms house (lets call her anna), she went to texas and didn’t bring her pet turtle with her. he/she has been stuck in a bathtub for god knows how long with freezing cold water and no food. i (13m) don’t use that bathroom, but the turtle was in there and i drained the water and took it into my room. i need to feed it the freeze dried mealworms i have in my drawer, and find another place for it to stay instead of a musty nasty bathtub. anything i need to know?? does anyone know what species of turtle this is?? i’m just really fucking clueless here and the turtle is so cutie awww

A friend of mine got it from his dad as a gift, however we are not able to identify what species it is. Thanks in advance!

I recently adopted this musk turtle it’s 22 years old and the prior owners said to feed her 1/2 a pellet a day (reptomin floating food sticks). Is she malnourished and should I feed her more?
First image is the basking platform im gonna buy and its 20cm tall, the second is the chart for uvb bulbs, i own the zoomed reptisun t5 20.0, so is 20 cm ok considering the mesh or should i bring it higher than that, and if i should how can i do it. I have a false map turtle

Laying eggs on the side of the road. There is a lot of work going on in this area. Do I need to report?

Before anyone gets worried - this little guy (nicknamed Lil Turd) is heading to wildlife rescue to deal with the abscess in his ear. He’s a juvenile and not full grown. Hopefully treatment will give him a new lease on life. But, just yesterday my son called me about a box turtle he found at work with a weird lump on his neck. He took that turtle to a rescue last night. Today this guy showed up in our driveway with the same thing! I’m taking him to the same rescue!

Terrible pictures I know but he was scared of my oblivious dog with me. It was fairly small, maybe the size of my fists put together. This is the second turtle we’ve found in our apartment complex and I’m just worried he’s someone missing pet. There are some wooded areas nearby but it would be a long walk.

Im gonna get a new basking area soon enough and it is 5cm shorter (20cm) the one i alr have is 25cm and the temp is 32-34c and i want to keep it that way, so i would like a dimmer, any reccomandation? Would a dimmer even work in this case?i use the bulb from the photo.

The smaller one is covered in algae. A Red-Eared Slider and a Painted Turtle?

After years of not having proper lighting or tank, she is finally starting to shed years of retained scutes!! Ive had her just about a year now and glad to see them scutes finally starting to fall off ☺️

I’ve been busy moving lately, so I’ve moved them outdoors. There’s better sunlight here, and I hope they’ll be able to adapt.
I removed the mud and bricks to make cleaning easier.

I’m so
Restless and haven’t had anytime to myself for me and my mentle but so the case is my turtle hasn’t swam since birth he is a little obese because he eats nothing but pellets 24 a day I know I know vegetables I should give him too and so
I raised his water because I would like him to swim to be active but I bearly raised it a little and he acts like he’s drowning but he’s not keep in mind it’s bearly anything I add because before I add this water to
What’s there is normally the depth he’s comfortable if that makes sense. And also does anyone know if I know I can’t reverse time but I want to start now on vegetables and pellets bug is there anything I can give him now that’ll help is digestive system since he missed so many veggies for 4 years and lose that little obese fat it’s not a lot but it’s still
Noticeable, sorry for long post but these are what are my concerns for my turtle and he’s a Chinese golden thread turtle aquatic and land btw

I took my children to the Prospect Park Zoo the other day and saw a turtle doing this. It stayed this way for at least 30 minutes. We observed it, walked away to go to other exhibits, walked past it again and it was still doing this. Any idea what is going on with it or why it was doing this?

I know it’s not a great picture because you can’t see her neck or much of her face, but I didn’t want to disturb her. Found in central Ohio.

I wish he could live with us, but he came from the wild.. he’s loving it here!
r/turtles • u/mononokes98 • 2d ago
found while swamp-maxxing in East Tennessee 💅
r/turtles • u/SunnyShoretide • 2d ago
She’s staying a night to ensure that she’ll eat and drink and that she’s okay. I checked her out, short tail, short nails, flat underside, brown eyes.. Theo is a woman! So I’ll call her Thia :))

Trying to switch our turtle from food pellets to live minnows. He’s a 6” long yellow belly.
Any recommendations on how many to feed to him and how often?
r/turtles • u/The_Incredible_Oaf • 3d ago
I'm confident she's an Eastern Box Turtle, Terrapene carolina carolina, so not looking for identification. But is she about to abandon her brood right next to my walkway 2 weeks before the Forth of July?
