AboutYexalen Expertise I am experienced with the care, lighting, heating, breeding, sexing, species identification, and general keeping of mostly aquatic turtles. I also have experience with tortoises and land turtles and can certainly research any question that I do not know the answer. I can not answer medical related questions as I am not veterinarian certified. I prefer not to answer questions on animals that you or somebody else has taken out of their natural environment unless the animal was in danger, ill, or injured.
Experience I have owned six aquatic turtles and have been researching turtles for several years. I have been on several question and answer sites under this category. I also have started up a web site focused on reptile care with a portion of it for turtles.
Education/Credentials I have been around turtles sense a very young age and always found them fascinating and because of that it has lead me to researching day after day, reading book after book, and finding endless amounts of web sites with information.
Question I have 5 turtle in a pond I built in my backyard. I don't know what type 2 of them are. If you write me back I can send photos of them. Can you please help me?
Answer Hello, I hope you are not taking these turtles out of a natural environment. It is not safe to keep multiple species of turtle together. Especially if its a small pond. My email is reptilianyex@live.com if you would like to send photos.
