Hope you enjoy them. As of now all my T's are juvies and slings so I'll toss a few other nature pics to keep your attention 'til the T's get bigger.

I've had Bert for almost 6 months now. He's the greatest turtle that has ever lived. There will be more pictures of him without a doubt. I love my T's but they don't beg for food like a dog like Bert does.

He begs for food? >_< How adorable! Is that what he was doing in that picture? Yay for future Bert pics. {D

Bert is amazing. What kind of snapper is he? Sorry. I'm unfamiliar with turtle's scientific names.

Bert is just your every day Common Snapping Turtle. And he's going through a HUGE growth spurt right now. From Sept. to Nov. he gained around 4 grams...in the past 3 or 4 weeks Bert's gained around 9 grams.

FINALLY GOT MY NEW CAMERA!!! So now I don't have to borrow everyone else's to get some pics. I'll be able to get a lot more and better pictures and it is able to shoot HD videos so I'm sure I'll be uploading some feeding videos to YouTube as well. I will definitely have some new pics up in the next few days.

I found Bert crossing a street about 3 minutes from my house. I took a HD macro video of him attacking some turtle pellets. I'll upload that in the next few days and post a link. It's funny because he still stalks the food even though it's not even moving.
