Today I just realized that my turtles got extra fat come out between the leg n shell. Is it normal or they overweight? I feed them twice a day, early morning n nite before sleep. Please advise. Thanks

A family friend gave my son a baby RES last Friday. We house him in a plastic aquarium, about 1ft with a piece of driftwood for him to get out of the water if he so desires.

Thing is, he never eats so far, just stays put and usually stays dry on the driftwood through the night. Could it be sick? I'm actually thinking of getting a UV lamp. Will that help? I'm a planted tank guy, so I have access to full spectrum bulbs, but I don't think that's helpful for terrapins, right?

Hi, may be u can try to put a heater for him. My RES just active n eat a lot when I put a heater(set to 25 Celsius degree) for them.
