Its that time of the year when he wants to hook up with a female.. So he swims & swims & swims, all while clawing the pond walls... Which might I add is VERY loud... Its been 3 days now that I've gotten very little sleep, as he just wont stop lol

I need to get a huge ice block & start putting it into his pond as night to keep him more quiet lol I need sleep lol

lol, an ice block hehe. that sucks, you could throw a female in with him, and then he would stop making noise lol, but you would have the problem of what to do with the female:p

Are you trying to send me to prison? lol (I know you don't know the laws)

Its VERY illegal to allow Axle to breed, & to own a 2ed one :eek:

Wishes she had a huge freezer to make a giant iceblock lol

I'm sorry, no I don't know anything about the laws, I have no idea about laws of owning turtles.

He must be an endangered species?

Axle is considered a Game animals, just like a deer. You cannot own a deer period, but there is a slightly different law with the turtle.. Kids pick them up & take them home as pets. If this happens then you can keep the turtle.. you cannot set it free, as thats illegal.. you cannot eat it, as thats illegal & you cannot sell it, as thats illegal... so you either give it to a rehab centre, who'll kill it, or you keep it.

I knew what Axle was when I got him. I was 17 I think, so I was a child & got to keep him :D + he was sick & would have died, so law officials have left me alone... They know I have him & as long as hes not causing ANY problems, I can keep him... so if he eats a neighbouts cat, THATS when the law can step in & kick my butt... But hes never outside alone, or in water.. hes very calm & friendly & I'm never too far from him. The worst thing is that he gets out of his pond & trashes my room :D :eek:
