HAHAA WELCOME TO THE DARK SIDE TIKTOK IS INSANE 🤣 Thank you for the kind words, I appreciate it and this video was super fun! The hate on that tok fuels me btw
Omg my friend did the same thing, she was trying to tell me that there's no way that turtles actually have tails, she couldn't fathom it lol. I'm just over here with my pet turtle, dying 🤣. It was funny tho bc when I showed her, she was really shocked lol.
I just recently got a red eared slider and have been following religiously Lol you are so smart and I feel so comfortable following your advice it’s worked out so well for my turtle “Maggie” and I thank you sooooo much!! She was a rescue too so means a lot to me that you made such informational content!! Much love god bless ❤️
Yes, it’s Mauremys Sinensis or Ocadia Sinensis. Mine (the one on the video) is still small, almost 1 year old. Females can grow up to 25 cm! I’ve seen some really huuuge females. They’re beautiful and really cute 😊
I don't really feed my turtle live foods. My turtle eats boiled shrimp(BIG KINDS OF SHRIMPS) and carrots. As a little treat, she eats very little pieces of watermelon. She also eats her pallets but she dosen't like them very much. 🦐🍉🥕 My turtle's name is Tyranter Georgy. She is a Red Eared Slider turtle. 💖🐢💖
hey sol! i got my first turtle today! i just wanted to say i’ve learned so much from you and your videos. thank you so much for everything you’ve helped me with!
Your videos keep me captivated. I use your knowledge with my hatchlings. I usually watch your videos while they feed. Thanks for your content, you wonderful human being.
The reason of why I don't use tiktok because I don't like people using their pets as entertainment and end up doing stupid stuff. But your reaction while you reacting to these videos and questioning why you are doing this is funny 😂
I just submitted my tank! Love your videos and you've helped me SOO much with my turtle care. You inspired me to even get a turtle in the first place. They are truly amazing creatures and pets 🐢
3:53 aw well crap. I found a baby turtle in my pool filter and took it in, but its still living a nice life and actually lets me hold him now and is eating well. His name is tofu.
3:52 I had found two baby turtles in my pool and now i have them as pets. I found them before I learned it was best to keep them in the wild but now it’s best if they stay with me because they won’t know how to survive in the wild
6:17 my turtle Kiwi should have been shipped like that because he came in a container with these pieces of some sort of paper. I'm pretty sure Kiwi hit the side of his shell a few times.
We got a big dog pool (golden retriever size under $60)from Amazon and our turtles live there as a pond. We gave them two caves, big basking rocks, plants. They love it! They have an inside one as well.
Great vid I was wondering where can you find 75 gallon or tanks that are wide but are still tall like yours because I have been trying to find tanks like that.
Most chain pet stores have larger tanks, or can special order them for you! Stock tanks/tubs are also a good option if you're looking for bigger enclosures
First! Hey I had a question, I just upgraded my three red eared sliders to a 55gallon, but with the new filter I have it requires me to have the water all the way at the top and my turtles can climb out so I’m not sure what to do. Any suggestions?
Once I saved a baby turtle that was drying out. I kept him for about a year, and fed him live fish so we could rehab him . I released him back to the wild, and now lives in his natural habitat in a lake.
Omg I didn't think you would use the video I sent haha. Idk why, but when I saw the instagram post, dumb me didn't think it was for a video. Duh! I do agree that turtle is too big for that tank. Anyways, another good video, Sol! I'll submit pictures of my tank!
Hey Turtle girl. I am going to volunteer at my summer camp for 2 weeks and 4 days and I will not be able to change the water for my two red eared sliders in my 65 gallon tank. Will they be okay without a water change until I get back? Please let me know. I have an automatic feeder for them.
Hmm...if it's an auto feeder that makes it a little more tough. They'll probably be fine by just make sure the autofeeder won't overfeed them and just do a water change as soon as you get back.
My Red Ears are 10”, 8.5” & 8”obviously feed bites according to turtle comfort swallowing. To get your turtle to eat fish, greens, fruit wait a few hours after they normally eat. I cut mango & apples up & microwave a few seconds so it’s a little softer. I boil fish to kill anything that might harm my turtles. It also makes it easier to eat. Be careful they love fish and will keep eating until the cows come home. That’s a long time cause I don’t have any cows 😂😂😂😂
What’s a credible place/Breeder to get a diamond back terrapin turtle or a musk turtle i’ve done all the research have all the set up for both also I love the content/information looking forward for more content
hmmm interesting. its working for me and for other still. it's possible you could be having issues if you're logged into multiple google accounts at once.
Hi turtlegirl! I really like to watch your movies. Sometimes I think you make your tanks to simply.. but I really like your outsides garden and playgrounds for your animals! Sometimes people take things to seriusly, but I se that you have a good feeling taking it as it is.. 😁
What an awesome video!! I was wondering if turtles need a hideout in their cage? Like a place to hide in case they feel startled or unsafe for any reason (such as guests coming over) or do they not mind??
A hideout can mean different things...I'd be careful about caves since they could potentially get stuck - but things like live/fake plants and other decor that they can hide in and behind are great and can make them feel secure!
Hello uhh my turtle I believe is blind and always looks for food nosing around on the sand even if I give her floating food she just cant eat it and usually goes on top of the sand… I was wondering what did you feed your hatchling musk turtles with? It wasn’t floating on water and that’s what exactly I need! Can you please tell me the brand of the food? Also I saw the food on the other video you made about them if you respond back Thank you! :)
Omg I don’t think I can go through these without getting upset! I love your videos but the way your a big help I also have a few questions about the dubia roaches because I’m gonna get some soon and I can’t quite find any answers but here are my questions: how often do you feed them? And spray them with water? And like the basics of taking care of them and like should I feed them everyday? Or like should i gut load them every time I feed them? Sorry if it’s a lot I just don’t want them dying on me when I get them😭 if anybody has answers please lmk ok that’s it lol
I spray them down every evening and also offer them some sort of vegetable or fruit every night...usually carrots, apples, oranges, that kind of thing - you can also buy dubia road gut load with works too!
All my turtles have always liked greens. I have two map turtles. Two pink side neck turtles. A softshell and a yellow belly slider and she devours everything including the onions…..
Hello the turtle girl! I was wondering if you could make a video of how to get baby turtles to trust and not be scared of you, I have a baby turtle and nothing seems to be working. ☹️
Food is the key to their trust! Walk or move slowly when you go by their enclosure so they get used to you, and if your turtle sees you are the one providing them food, they'll warm up to you eventually!

Should I feed an adult turtle live food? Because I’m being given a turtle that’s around 20 years old and I’ve been hearing things about live feeding so I’m wondering if I should feed him live food.
should i do more of these? 🤔

Oooh! I was thinking about getting one!
The turtle @ 3:05 is a ”Golden thread turtle” also called a Chinese striped neck turtle.
Thank you!! Appreciate it!
@@TheTurtleGirl no problem, I got one of those actually. 😆
It's scientific name is Mauremys Sinensis. They got pretty huge, at least bigger than RES.
I was just about to say this! We also have a Chinese golden thread turtle. :) they’re sweet turtles!
Yes, it’s Mauremys Sinensis or Ocadia Sinensis. Mine (the one on the video) is still small, almost 1 year old. Females can grow up to 25 cm! I’ve seen some really huuuge females. They’re beautiful and really cute 😊

4:48 my musk turtle will only eat greens if they're live plants I leave in the tank, she totally tears up the java ferns I try to plant ;;

3:53 aw well crap. I found a baby turtle in my pool filter and took it in, but its still living a nice life and actually lets me hold him now and is eating well. His name is tofu.
I feel like the only time you should ever catch a turtle from the wild to keep as a pet if it's invasive.
Awwww Pumpkin has really grown now, Dan was really worried
3:52 I had found two baby turtles in my pool and now i have them as pets. I found them before I learned it was best to keep them in the wild but now it’s best if they stay with me because they won’t know how to survive in the wild
A lot of people struggle to feed their turtles greens but mine would only eat greens for the first 2 weeks I had him
Haha lucky you! He's a healthy guy 😜
3:06 that’s a Chinese golden thread turtle. I have 2 of them
Cool!
You make the best vids ever! 🐢❤️
I am obsessed with turtles/tortoises/sea turtles. You make me love them even more. 💕🐢
Basically any type of turtle I love.
Your so wonderful, i love listening to the way you talk about turtles.
10:42 this is proof that even the most optimistic people get annoyed from tik tok. 🤣

My leapord gecko was chilling on my tablet during the video and your videos are amazing your so nice to animals I'm an animal lover
Aw awesome! Glad to hear it!

75 gallons!
Hello I'm so Happy That you teach us how to take care turtles 10 minute videos saved hours of research thanks also my Amboina box turtle sed hello

Nice! Thanks for the ID!
We need part 2!
Duly noted!
First! Hey I had a question, I just upgraded my three red eared sliders to a 55gallon, but with the new filter I have it requires me to have the water all the way at the top and my turtles can climb out so I’m not sure what to do. Any suggestions?
maybe try somehow securing plastic egg crate around where they can escape? try maybe tape or something to stick it on or if you can, use silicone?
you could make a lid out of eggcrate or screen and find a way to escape proof it!
Ok! Thanks for the ideas!
LOLLL the cut to you editing 😂 couldn’t agree more though
haha it has to be said!
5:50 I mean they generally only bring out their legs of they're comfortable with what's going on
this is true!
Love your vids and you and 🐢
Thanks Heather!
Hahah my turtle climbed the curtain halfway too
dang 😳
TGIF ! My Fave day to see more turtle videos 🤣🤣🤣

Sometimes people take things to seriusly, but I se that you have a good feeling taking it as it is.. 😁
@The Turtle Girl It looks like a Chinese golden thread turtle, the one you weren’t sure about in the bowl eating
What an awesome video!!
I was wondering if turtles need a hideout in their cage? Like a place to hide in case they feel startled or unsafe for any reason (such as guests coming over) or do they not mind??
I would definitely add one. They can hide when they want, then come out if they're comfortable!

hopefully soon! ^-^
Wow its been a minute since I've watched your videos, I've been here since the turtle unboxing the new addition to the family one.👌
heyyy you're an og! Thanks for dropping by!
@@TheTurtleGirl Haha thx 😊 I will for sure have a diamond back terrapin one day still. 👍
Hey there! Just wanted to know if for the tank submissions I could submit my box turtle enclosure. Thank you!
Yes! Non aquatic turtles, tortoises, and other pets are welcome!
Where do you get your turtles?
from breeders and by adopting them :)
I’m your new subscriber
the species of teh turtle you asked was a ocadia sinensis, i have one
I have a box turtle but yet im still watching turtles
I think this is now my favorite video
Hahaha thank you
Turtle Girl I got a turtle that was found injured on the road. The vet prescribed oral antibiotics but I couldn't afford to fix it's shell - $36000.00
Yeah I understand i found a red ear slider crossing the road it was hugh I put it in a box and took it to a pond because it almost got hit
Does anyone know how I can purchase a diamond back terrapin in California…? Los Angeles to be exact, I would really like to have one.
Hmm you'd have to check your laws and look for a breeder
Amazing video ! ❤️ 😍 do you know about a flapshell turtle? I have one, but I want to give it its best habitat ... any advice ? 😃
thanks! Unfortunately idk about flapshells, sorry!
Is a 40 gallon good for a 1 year old red eared slider?
Depends on the size of their shell. The bare minimum is 10 gallons per inch of shell
A 40 gallon would be a bit small, but would be fine for a bit. Try to upgrade to a 75 gallon
@@TooIQ k I will upgrade to a probably 80 gallon tank so then they will have more space thanks for the advice

Is it ok to grow two baby RES turtles in 34 gallons?
if their baby, yes. Once they get older you could get a pond and they should be good
