Tiny Tim....... Our turtle





So this is our turtle. He is an aquatic red ear slider turtle. Up until now he has eaten mealworms and pellet food. He is now onto bigger and better things...... Gold Fish! If you look close in the one picture you can see him staring his prey down. Turtles have lots of diseases and so we have been very careful when we handle him. Very thorough hand wash when were done. His name is Tiny Tim.... I think???? It changes quite regularly. Kade was coloring waiting for the turtle to eat the fish......

Why is an animal eatting something so fasinating to children? At least it keeps them busy!

I love the note that they are "full of disease". I am sure Kade is in heaven with the new pet. Hope you had a happy Thanksgiving!
