Hybrids interest the hell out of me. I have both AST and CST and they are so different that im fascinated to see what traits a hybrid picks up from each.
@@GregsTurtleHaven amazing cant wait, i have sent you email regarding some winter questions of the species if you dont mind greg. Let me know if you get it okay!
I have a common snapping turtle and hes around a year old, I usually feed him pellets and mealworms, and I recently started feeding him vegetables, is there any important things I’m missing?
I keep a few alligator snapping turtles and my one won’t take food from my tongs all my others will but the one won’t do you have any advice on how to show her I’m just trying to feed her
hi im from the Philippines, i get my first common snapping turtle about a week ago... he/she didn't take the food that i offer today.. do i feed them everyday or what is the routine of their feeding.. thanks
Depending on whats available to you in the UK, i would recommend spotted turtles, European pond turtles, sliders, painted turtles and common musk turtles.
I was wondering about predators like raccoons etc coming in your yard and getting your turtles? I notice most people that have outdoor ponds put chicken wire over it to protect the turtles from predators.
I don’t like to use chicken wire or netting over ponds because if a branch or debris falls on it, it can become a ladder out of the enclosure, or worse yet turtles (and fish) can get caught in it and drown. Using chicken wire or netting is more of a band aid than solving or preventing the problem of predators. All my turtles instinctually sleep away from from shallow edges, have underwater caves and overhangs, I have some electric fence run, and my pit bull avidly patrols the property.
Yea, it’s just a diet their digestive system isn’t well suited for, not like a common snapper. It causes improper growth and excessive fat around the head and limbs

Same here
Basically an alligator snapping turtle with a very long neck watch out for that
I love herping shallow - medium streams, As well as wood areas near ponds as well as the pond its self.
Thanks! Nice video! Very informative.
B-roll game strong! Cool cinematic look. I like it.
Thanks Gabe!

Informative. thanks man
I think that you seem to have some good thoughts/opinions about morphs and diet.
Fredrik Karlsson thanks! I just lean towards what is natural and what nature already provides 👍🏼
@@GregsTurtleHaven this is why I really respect and enjoy your channel
Do you add any calcium to the snapping turtle's food or do they get enough from the natural foods you feed them?
Hey Greg, my family, and I love your videos. I really dig your shirt, and was wondering were to pick one up?
Link is in the video description 👍🏼
Glad you guys like the videos
Would a common snapper get all the nutrients it needs from eating only a good dry dog food?

What's some good cold tolerant turtles? Preferably semi aquatic. Am from the UK and love keeping my animals outdoors!

You said you feed clams. Where did you buy them from?
Some are bought at Asian grocery, and I grow my own corbicula
Trying to sell the Hybrid Snapper?
Makes sense about rodents and chicken they don’t eat in wild I agree
