    Default What should we do?

    My sister caught a baby turtle in my back yard, she swears its the cutest thing ever... she wants to keep it... I'm not gay or nothin but the shit is kinda cute. What im sayin is i dont want her to keep it and for it to die, ya know... I'm thinkin just put it back where she found it. We never had a turtle or any legged pet, so dont want it to die and shit... but strange enough we live NO WHERE near a lake... dont know where the fuck it came from...it was raining today though.

    well if you put it back most likely it will die since you have touched it i believe the parents will not want anything to do with it if they even find it again

    just look online and you can find plenty of ways to feed it and keep it alive, or goto petsmart and ask someone there

    DO not ask folks at Petsmart for critical information on animals.... They dont know shit for the most part and are afraid to say they dont know. Talk to a specialty store if you have to talk to someone.

    it will most likely die out on its own the parent will not find it and if they do by chance they wont want the baby anymore

    just search online about how to feed it and that should be good for the nite

    If you put it back, chances are it wont live b/c there is no lake or pond anywhere near there or its mom. Its a baby, so it might die if not taken well care of. Just look up info on it and get a little tank and turtle food. Go to Petsmart. I have 2 baby turtles.

    turtles are on their own pretty much from the first day they are born.. they are not like birds where if there is human scent on them, they'll push them out of the nest to die... it's not like that... i'm sure that turtle will be fine, survival of the fittest... I love turtles(I have one tattooed on me), it's nothing against that turtle or against ya'll, but if it was me, I'd let it go... You should take it to a stream, pond, lake or river..

    Ever noticed how sea turtles come to land, lay their eggs and disappear like fat kids in dodgeball? Their parents don't really do too much for them.

    it's ok man, it's ok.


    my buddy has had his 2 turtles since he was able to speak. Turtles are known to outlive humans so keeping it might not be a bad idea.

    Just don't put the tank on top of a TV in your room.

    That's how I murdered my boy's turtle back in the 8th grade

    they cleaned up the mess, put the turtle back in the tank like everything was all good.

    Homeboy DIED the next week. My boy always reminds me of that shit till this day
