Hail to the King of Bequia who seems to have a sympathetic dome head somewhat like a turtle shell! I'm now sorry I missed World Turtle Day, especially since that third from the left reptile above is quite like my own Franklin, a red-earer slider. We got Franklin about 9 years ago when he was about 3" long and now he is over 10" long. Last year he...errrr she...laid an egg in her aqua-terrarium which I found amazing since Franklin...errr Franklina...has not even seen another turtle since birth. If I was near Bequia I would let Franklina free there but up here the winters are a touch too cold for her. I'm now setting up a kiddie pool in our yard as a temporary outdoor home for her and we'll bring her back inside to her tank early next Fall.
OK...where should I go this time? I'm accepting suggestions, but in the meantime, please give me a bit to come up with a good one. So I'll retreat into my shell ...hey, hi Shell!...and let you know when I'm there.
