How should I care for a pet turtle?

Answer by  Nadine (206)

Find out what kind of turtle you have. Different species have different requirements. Next, take your turtle to a vet and have him tell you what is safe to feed the turtle. Build a habitat for the turtle with a source of water and some light.

Turtles can be very fragile. See your doctor for the best care information. Ensure their tank is large enough, and kept clean (though might like mossy rocks). The water should be deep enough to fully submerge, and have rocks that can be easily climbed upon (they make floating docks also). Sufficient sunlight is important. Watch what you feed it.

Well you want to put it in an aquarium or a cold climate as well because they are reptiles. You should provide some soiling in the aquarium and also some plants for shade.

Pet turtle care must first consist of total reverence for the pet turtle since this precious creature comes from God. When seeking advice on turtle care, use your perfected powers of judgement when deciding if the advice is good or not. Treat the turtle kindly, if you don't want a giant duck from heaven jumping on you.
