Advice please?!
Hi guys
I'm thinking of getting some turtles, I've seen some snake necked babies at a local aquatic centre which look totally amazing! But I need some information as I've never kept turtles, only tortoises before. I've tried searching the internet and searching SW but I can't find much about snake necks! Here's the list of things I need to know! What kind of setup do thy require? What diet do they require? Are they social, should they be kept in pairs/ groups? How big do they get? How long do they live? Can they be kept with other species? Do they need supplements in their diet? Are these turtles relatively easy to keep for a beginner or should I start with another species first that might be a bit easier? I know it's alot of info I need but any advice you can give about keeping these amazing creatures would be greatly appreciated as I won't get any if I feel I wouldn't be able to offer them the correct environment etc that they would require. Thanks in advance for answering my endless questions! Lily[/list]
