Whew! Thanks for replying so quickly. I was really worried.

Thanks also for bringing something up that you thought might be a problem! I really do appreciate it!

His shell is a little on the dry side, compared to my other turtle. I don't know if that is something I should be concerned about.

My other turtle will eat fruits and veggies, but TimTam refuses. I mash the stuff up and put it in the water when I feed him his pellets, hoping that some will go down while he's eating the pellets. I want to give him more variety, but he makes it very difficult.
