I’m so glad that you got a new turtle bc I have a red eared slider and he is the same age and same size, so you will help me care for him and learn more information about red eared sliders. I love you and your channel sooo much . May God bless you and your family. And I will also miss Sheldon sooo much. Thanks for all you do.
After watching your videos I got inspired and got a turtle... I even made the above tank basking area out of egg crate. I just want to show my appreciation for your channel... Thank you and Rest In Peace to Sheldon...
Smart choice to put the lid on the tank. Red-eared sliders are surprisingly good climbers. They can be escape artists. I used to have one that managed to climb out of his tank once and was found under my brother's bed about a week later. He's still alive apparently, but I had to rehome him when I moved about a decade ago. I gave him to a former teacher who kept a bunch of turtles and he had babies with a female red-ear that my teacher already had.
Nice tank setup. It’s unfortunate what happened but like you’ve said before, everything happens for a reason. This little res turtle might not have made it out there and you’re giving it the best chance possible.
thank you so much for continuing your channel, you inspired me to get my own map turtle hatchling! i'm sure sheldon would be happy that you continued helping and rehoming turtles. sheldon jr is so cute!
Great video!! 1. I love that you saved Sheldon Jr! Poor fella looked so dried out in the road, he must have been tired, hot, thirty and hungry. 🐢☀️ 2. He looks like my baby turtle that I found in the road about 2 months ago. 3. It's so cool that he's in a tank with fish, thanks for telling us what kind of fish they are (keep us posted how how well they get along) 4. Love love love that turtle cliff!! Discreet filtration AND and basking rock all in one?!? Saaweeet. Keep us posted on how well it works. Personally I love the other filter that you had in there- that's what I use (but I hot glued rocks on it) 5. How funny that he kept climbing on the rock once you put him in. 6. Sheldon would be proud and grateful that you saved a fellow turtle. (PS. turtle are crafty escape artists!! In my heart, I bet Sheldon climbed out of the enclosure... and you know turtles, they can cover a lot of ground fast.. i bet he's out in nature exploring and trekking around. 👀 🐢🐾putting down some turtley turtle roots, starting his own little turtle family (well he's probably still too young for that, he's probably doing a little turtle speed dating, finding his right match 🐢💓🐢. Give it a year, you'll see more Sheldon juniors scampering around..little Sheldon offspring). Anyway, that's my story and I'm sticking to it ☺✋👍. Live on Sheldon 🤜✌🐢👍🐾
this video was sooo helpful. My baby turtle wasn't eating pellets but we had the same container you used to feed him, and he took a day or two but he's eating pellets all the time now!!!
Sheldon Jr. Is adorable! My red eared slider is a 9inch female named Turbo. I got her a year ago. She loves human interaction. Although being touched isn't her favorite.
Sheldon JR looked like he was a box turtle at heart haha! Sorry about Sheldon. I'm glad I found your page. You give good tips for a newbie like myself. I'm also in the StL area. Keep up the good work!
I always forget hes a small youtuber I really enjoy your videos and always click on them as soon as I see the notification and I cant wait to see more about sheldon jr. and the box turtles
So glad you got another turtle! Always be positive. This allowed you to save a turtle! ❤️❤️❤️. P.s love your videos I have 2 yellow bellies and a painted! And I got them in college and they helped me then and now
It’s good to see Little Sheldon(Junior) doing well...he’s really active!! Maybe that’s why you found him on the road....”get me the heck away from water!” 😂😂😂
How do you keep the water so clean? I have two baby red eared sliders that size and their water seems to last about 5 days and then needing water/filter change.
I guess things happen for a reason - it is bizzare that you found Jr just days before Sheldon disappeared!! You could never make this story up - right out of life!! Glad you are feeling better
Aw, Sheldon Jr. is precious. I’m happy for you and your new shell baby. Maybe Sheldon Jr. wasn’t liking the current too much at first and that’s why he kept going up to the basking platform..? Either way, you fixed the current and he seems more satisfied with it now. Lol I hadn’t thought of covering the container with a towel while feeding the turtles in a separate container. That’s clever.
You’ve helped so much with my turtle, I rescued it from my little brother who had been keeping it secretly in a cooler. He was feeding it nothing but lettuce and had a fungal infection when I got him. Since then my baby red eared slider I would name Po has a 20 gallon tank, he’s on a proper turtle diet and his favorite things to do are hunt bugs and sleep on his rock.
Great to see you back uploading videos Carson. Great to see Sheldon jnr is getting on fine, Sheldon snr must be watching over him..... He's gonna be fine in ur care just like Sheldon snr was
Carson, i hope you feel better and i also think that you should get a Clown Knife Fish for you pond because they get along with Koi and they are friendly after awhile of feeding.
i thought the turtle chapter was closed but man you are lucky to have SHELDON JR. good job man you are like "HERO REBORN"Good job man your vids are getting fire day by day again!!!!
Yooo, Carson! That upper body strength! 💪🏾🖤Wow. SJ is a little mischievous, aint he? 😆 Also, great job on the handfeeding, Turtle Whisperer. I've been called the Dogfather 😅 so I understand. Great video. Glad to see you're in higher spirit. I've only been watching for the past few months, but im a fan. I'm inspired to make videos soon.
I’m glad that timing was ironic so as soon as sadly, Sheldon has passed on 😔 you have a new pet turtle, Sheldon jr so Sheldon will live on with us forever. Your channel is awesome Carson 🤘
Hi. I’m setting up my baby turtle tank and your videos have been helpful but Did you us a water heater for Sheldon jr tank? I didn’t see it in the newer videos.
Lmao @ “you ain’t getting out homie “ same thing I told my turtle after he got in his tank..I just recently found mine October 10 few days after my birthday in a pile of rubbish at work now his name is lucky
Dude your amazing with turtles in most cases turtles that are not captive bred and are wild caught like sheldon jr don't eat and die you did a great job I give you props👍
All mine are captive bred but I breed albino and snow red ears currently but generally speaking most are indeed wild caught now of days. But even when I worked in my teen age years in a pet store, I never had a problem getting wild caught turtles to eat. So I do not understand why you had difficulty as they are little piglets near immediantly. I do start mine out of a specific diet though shortly after they hatch. It really is not that they won't eat, it's based if the owners have knowledge or not. Just for your information, with baby hatchling turtles or if there is one that refuses to eat, all you do is take frozen blood worms which is almost like candy to a them, break up some freeze dried shrimp and a few turtle pellets and put in the blood worms as they thaw. The shrimp and pellets absorb the blood worms juices then mix that up well and you will get any baby turtle to eat. Do this for 3 to 4 weeks and you won't have a problem with that turtle ever again. A proper set up is also very important staying away from the round death trap turtle islands and such.
Hey Carson glad your back! Is the green tint on the red earred slider a thing when they’re super young or something, I have a res that I got when he was about 5-12 months old but he already just looked like a smaller version of an adult
Awww, a cute baby red eared slider! I turtle hunt and years ago, I found two baby red eared sliders. One came to my fishing pole and I jumped into the lake and got him, and another one I handcaught him in the lake. They were both just a couple weeks old, and I had them for 6 years, they unfortunelty passed due to an infection that I did not catch in time.. RIP to Crush and Snapper, they were two good boys
Sorry to hear about OG Sheldon, RIP. Do you have a link to the chemicals you used to add to the tank? We just started a slider tank and are trying to get the bacteria cycle right..
He is too cute and funny bro he will be happy with you. He would be very delighted that he got free from that big and scary road with so many dreadful challenges
Good Day, I just adopted a baby musk. I need aquarium advice. What size filter do I need for a 10 gallon tank(temp)? Also do I need to keep the lid on the tank? How much water and do I put any water conditioning in it? Thanks🐢🐢Also how long so you keep the lid on?
Awesome set up man, I have turtles but haven’t raise one in a while. I think I want to raise a hatchling in something similar to your setup! Great video!👍
Glad to see that Sheldon Jr. is doing well, I was really sad to hear what happened to Sheldon. It was actually your videos that I started watching before I got my turtle, He's a little Map turtle named Tiki. :)
I just hatched out a group of albino het snow red ear slider babies and setting up a tank myself to put with my albino pink belly sideneck turtles so I came to your channel to see if any new ideas were present. I do need some artificial plants I feel so thank you. I have my adults in a waterland turtle tub so I have not had a baby tank in many years as I raised the adults slowly to increase their life span from them being 3 days old originally. My adults are on a short video on my RUclips channel as well as my albino pink belly sideneck turtles. I will be adding a video of the new baby tank soon but as mentioned, I wanted to get some ideas first. My water was murky as well and frankly I was confused as to why. Treating the water currently. Thank you for the ideas by the way. With hatching alot of albino het snows, I will be finding a few new homes for a few while keeping some back of course to enjoy and raise.
That's awesome how you just stumbled upon Sheldon Jr! The whole reason we have a turtle (Eastern River Cooter), is because my cat, Bob brought us 2 baby turtles in March of this year. The first was a box turtle and we released him where we think the cat got him. The other we decided to keep and named him Yoshi. We think it's a boy but it's hard to tell till it gets older, but Yoshi is a part of our family now. 🐢❤️
He mighta just been literally testing the waters. Lol. He didn't know if the water was safe so he would swim out a little. Then back. Then back out and so on. 😂
I got a little spotted turtle baby, someone found it wandering through a work site. He's smaller than Sheldon Jr. And I learned he's semi aquatic should I do the tank kind of tank set up? How much should I feed him?
I have two 1 years in a 20 gallon. I wanna know if 8 inches of water is enough for them. I also have a filter mimicking as a water fall ( massive ), a platform, and a little tree stump hiding place.
So glad to be back making videos! Everyone meet Sheldon Jr!
I’m so glad that you got a new turtle bc I have a red eared slider and he is the same age and same size, so you will help me care for him and learn more information about red eared sliders. I love you and your channel sooo much . May God bless you and your family. And I will also miss Sheldon sooo much. Thanks for all you do.
Nice
I hope one day you see Sheldon again!
Sheldon!!Jr!!sheldon!!jr!!!
where are the box turtles?
Sheldon ain’t dead
He went to see his turtle mates in heaven
sheldon ain’t dead because he still in our hearts too!
Where is sheldon? Did he dead? Or just gone but don't know where he at..? Which one?
My 2 year old turtle too. I hope he meets him
Hyperion yep hope so
Thanks for the likes
I choked on my soda when the little guy flipped over in the intro. 😂
That was hilarious
After watching your videos I got inspired and got a turtle... I even made the above tank basking area out of egg crate. I just want to show my appreciation for your channel... Thank you and Rest In Peace to Sheldon...
i bet sheldon is watching sheldon jr from turtle heaven, happy someone else will be able to fill in the place he had accidentally lost
Sheldon Jr has a great life ahead of him, from one turtle parent to another, you’re doing so great. Can’t wait to see more
Smart choice to put the lid on the tank. Red-eared sliders are surprisingly good climbers. They can be escape artists.

How do you keep the water so clean? I have two baby red eared sliders that size and their water seems to last about 5 days and then needing water/filter change.

Great video, actually I think Sheldon Jr. is not so much afraid of the water as he is of the fish that are as big as he is-ha ha.
SJ or Sheldon Jr is doing great. He will be fine and I am glad you were able to bounce back strong.
If anyone sees this comment... I hope you have a good day
Ty
Hey what about the water removal and filtration?
Dude your amazing with turtles in most cases turtles that are not captive bred and are wild caught like sheldon jr don't eat and die you did a great job I give you props👍

Good Day, I just adopted a baby musk. I need aquarium advice. What size filter do I need for a 10 gallon tank(temp)? Also do I need to keep the lid on the tank? How much water and do I put any water conditioning in it? Thanks🐢🐢Also how long so you keep the lid on?
I’m so sorry for Sheldon I’ve been watching your videos since you got him he was an awesome turtle
Awesome set up man, I have turtles but haven’t raise one in a while. I think I want to raise a hatchling in something similar to your setup! Great video!👍

Great video. I really like your video's your video's inspired me I really happy that your channel exist!!

im sure sheldon jr. will live up to the sheldon legacy... sheldon cant be dead if he lives on in our hearts
Turtle whisperer LOVE it i like.your set up. 🤗
what filter is that again? Love it
What’s the bacteria starter that you used and what lamp is that????
Sheldon jr funny as hell
Sheldon jr looks so happy I thinks its cool that he’s likes land more than water 😆
Hey Carson we have baby red ears our 20 gallon tank is set up water is crystal clear do we need to wait 2 weeks for it to "cycle" ?
Excited to see his growth 😁😆
He mighta just been literally testing the waters. Lol. He didn't know if the water was safe so he would swim out a little. Then back. Then back out and so on. 😂
That turtle cliff is cool I actually need something like that for Dexter ( my baby slider )
I got a little spotted turtle baby, someone found it wandering through a work site. He's smaller than Sheldon Jr. And I learned he's semi aquatic should I do the tank kind of tank set up? How much should I feed him?
Sheldon Jr. Long may he reign.
Dude awesome video! Btw u look like Joe burrow that's dope lolll
I have two 1 years in a 20 gallon. I wanna know if 8 inches of water is enough for them. I also have a filter mimicking as a water fall ( massive ), a platform, and a little tree stump hiding place.
@Chri$y they’ve been changed to a 155 tank
