Isn't she the coolest critter ever!!

I love getting to meet people who love rare exotics like myself (Axle isn't rare, but not many ppl have them) & work their butts off too keep the critter happy.

My exotic is rare cause they aren't easy to keep. I have a Common Snapping Turtle... His care is too easy. He hardly eats, doesn't need walks during the summer, doesn't need any grooming, no toys, no special $$ foods... Its the summer time he gets annoying lol He always gets out of his pond & trashes the place. My goodness hes like a tank that likes to move furnature & sleep ON MY BLOODY PILLOW!!! <-- He has a thing for pillows & dog beds lol Woke up to him once sleeping on my chest with his neck stretched out close to my chin.. Good morning! lol

Axle is legal in many cities. However in this city he is not. BUT I have notified the government & since I have had him for 7yrs (since he was a hatchling) & I do take great care of him & its all documented in photos & hes in an aducational program/study.. they don't care that I have him, as long as I keep him on my property & away from others. So no more walks in the park for him, but he has a fenced in yard to play in lol. Saddly he doesn't have anymore doggy friends
