Squirt
is a special little guy to me because he came from a rough start in
life. He ended up in a home that wasn't taking care of him, and was neglecting
him very badly. He came to me not knowing how to swim, and with some shell
problems because he was never provided any heat or lighting. Red-eared
sliders, like most semi-aquatic turtles, need both water to swim in, and a
place to climb out and warm and sun themselves to be healthy and grow good,
strong shells.
He has an amazing personality, and will literally beg for his dinner each
night. He doesn't mind being held, and is just an all around great little
turtle. Everyone that sees Squirt can't help but instantly fall in love with
him!
