Your turtles are so cute -- if I ever see a red eared slider around here it's usually at least 12" in diameter and nasty as can be. They crawl up out of the ditches to try to lay their eggs along the road. Don't know why they don't stay down in the woods, but so many get crunched by oncoming traffic. I wish people would watch out. Think how old those turtles must be. (Oops - really off subject. Sorry.)
