Okay..my kid wants a turtle and I know nothing about them. What does it take to get started and do I really want to get started? How big do they get? I thought they were little things that lived in a fishbowl..someone else said they get big???? Should I just go for a virtual pet and call it good? We have dogs..isn’t that good enough? Anyways….I don’t want her to get something that involves alot of my time…yes, i know who will clean and feed and such..I’m prepared for that..within reason.. but I don’t want some cute turtle turning into some gigantical turtle and no where to put him….someone else said that anything under 4 inches was illeagal??? aren’t there little turtles like what we saw on Hallmark movies?

So what’s involved with getting a turtle…? help!
so they don’t stay little? I was kinda hoping for something that stayed about the size of the palm of my hand……. are there any like that?

i really really want a turtle out of the blue since yesterday! how much are they at petco?

what care do pet turtles need?
food, shelter etc.

-they are really tiny and have green, yellow and red stripes.
-also, how much are they or would they be in New Brunswick, Canada?
i figure they are red eared sliders, but how much are they?

I want to release them to somewhere that they would be good.
the turtles sizes are bigger than my hand (average size hand)! There are five of them

well i want a pet turtle and i cant find any shop in newport (where i live) that sells them so is there any shop in cardiff or somewhere close that sells them?

also include a webiste if there is on

My little brother (who is almost 10) realy wants to get a pet turtle. My mom said to do a little research and she would think about it. I was wondering if they are easy to take care of and what kind should he want to get.If you have any good advice, information, or websites I could go to please let me know! Thanks!

due to construction in the area killing them, im keeping 2 box turtles untill construction is over (checked with wildlife officials, its fine as long as i dont have more than 5) I have a reptile water dish for one and a large seashell with water for the other but i havnt seen them drink so Im taking them to a mud puddle every other day and they drink then, but how do i know its enough?

They dont need water?

does any one have pet turtles for sale under $30.
