How adorable! I had two turtles when I lived in New Orleans (a long time ago and far, far away...). I didn't give them enough sunlight and had to take them to the vet for antibiotics for their eyes. Really. I felt a little silly waiting in the vet's office, but the vet didn't laugh, and the treatment worked. I fed them hamburger and fresh vegetables and their carapaces grew bigger than my outstretched hand. Kept getting bigger tanks. Had to clean them a LOT. Finally had to release them in a bayou - where there were many other turtles. Those were good days. Aunt B
