I finally got bit by squirt the other day.. on the pinkie! I took him out of the tank, and was looking for a bin to put him in, and while i wasn't paying attention, my pinkie must've drifted in his face, and WHAM!
He didn't break the skin, it was more like a hard pinch. But it was weird, he kind of "pulsed" while he was locked down on my finger, like he'd lessen the pressure, then bite down hard again.
I officially can say I have been bit now!

- Hello, My name is Chris and I am a Junior in high school. I have a spoiled red ear slider named squirt. I got him back in December of 'O7. He was about 2.7 inches long when I got him and he is now about 3.5 inches long. I also got an Ornate box turtle, she is about 3 1/4". This blog will be mostly about my turtles, tank set-up, care, and general turtle talk. Hope you enjoy reading my blog. I am big on photos and photography so I will probably be posting a lot of photos of my tank set-ups and squirt himself. Feel free to post comments asking questions if you need to! I will be happy to answer them.
I Currently Keep:
- 0.1.0 Ornate Box turtle
- 1 Red Eared Slider-Squirt
- 3 Crested Geckos-Maddie, Mocha, Caramel
- 1 Axolotl-Axle

Too funny - - I have to feed Sheldon by hand because as soon as he opens his mouth, I panic and let the food drop!
Hey, what happened to the photos on your blog??
I finally found a 40g tank on craigslist that I could afford, and ready to set up a new habitat -I need to check out your set up again cause it's one of my faves.

Hey shelly,
Haha that happened to me at first too! I would freak and drop the pellet.
Yeah sorry about that, I organized my photobucket and all my photos got screwed up! damnit, should have done it in the first place.
I need to update the picture of his tank for this blog, so i'll post it up here as well. Check your PM's on red ear slider forum!
