I agree, it could be worse. Hopefully the little turtle will find a good home soon x

ha, today i got a message back from this seller (after my rather long email about the care that should be provided for the musk turtle, and asking that the information i had given should be passed on to whoever buys it). The really long comprehensive reply that i got was ... "k". That was it, not even "ok". Infuriating

You've done all you can do now, lets just hope someone buys it and knows how to care for it or even finds out how to care for it properly.

I suppose at least you didn't get back loads of abuse lol xx
