They are lovely turtles the YBS, the two Jo are getting are really friendly and are used to being handled. They have never had enough water to swim in before, so they are going to love Jo's new pond.

How do they get on with pond fish, and what do they eat.

We have a pond that is about 4 foot deep, but I never thought I could house terapins outdoors all year round.

they will eat anything smaller than them although a freind of mine had all the heads eaten of her goldfish by the turtle so unless you mind that happening they are best by themselves, i think some fish are to qiuck for them as turtles aren't very good swimmers but they are predators.
