MY TURTLE EGGS HATCHED!! 

They were hatched on the 4th so you have to go with the founding fathers. Washington, Adams, Jefferson, Madison, and Monroe

omg when you said "this guy's ready to eat soon", my heart sank thinking the worst

Put a net over their tank or a heron will eat all 5 of them

The yellow tip is an egg tooth, it helps them break through the egg when hatching. It will fall off so don't be alarmed.

I respect the hell out of the research you do to take proper care of your animals. We need more people like you!

Nice! Keep those little guys away from Moby. 😂

Lucky you. I only find used condoms when I visit my local parking lot.

They look like yellow belly red ear hybrids. They don’t have red ears but do have the green carapace of a Redear but they’re plastron is yellow like a yellow belly slider.

Baby turtles will grow to be strong turtles and live like a family and the pond idea is a good thing to do for turtles

Michaelangelo, leonardo, Raphael, Donatello, splinter... hope I win! Love your content BamaBass!!!

Name them all shades of green. Emerald, Juniper, Forest, Sage, and Olive.

1) Michelangelo 2)Donatello 3)Raphael 4)Leonardo 5)Venus the girl Ninja Turtle. She appeared on a couple of episodes

Washington Jefferson Roosevelt Lincoln and Franklin since there born on 4th of July

The yellow tip on their nose is the egg tooth (i believe thats how its called). Its used for them to crack the egg and hatch. It fades away.

the little yellow parts on the nose are used for breaking out of the egg, i once had a baby turtle and it’s went away after some time

My son and I were fishing at a dam one day and saw some seagulls going nuts, of course we had to investigate. A batch of newly hatched turtles were what they were feasting on. There was one left and of course it had to come home with us. She looked just like yours and the vet (yes there are vets who specialize) said she was a yellow bellied slider. She had the most personality of any aquatic animal I had ever seen and haven't seen since. She was hand fed, liked frequent water "baths" and loved to be with people . Her name is SKOOT :) and she is now part of the hands on exhibit at the local environmental center. After 9 years here, my son joined the marines and I knew I couldn't invest the time needed to care for her properly, so I did the next best thing I could for her. Now she helps to teach students and is still the most beautiful turtle I have ever seen. I hope you enjoy yours.

After turtles hatch they spend a week or so still in the ground where they absorb their embryo and finish developing

Congrats! The first hatch is always the best. As for species, they're yellow bellied sliders (Trachemys scripta scripta) mixed with red eared slider (T. s. elegans) meaning they're intergrades between subspecies. Best of luck with 'em!

Who else caught this channel checking out a fishing video then binge watched from the creation of the bass pond?

I'm busy studying and your voice is so soothing to my tired brain. Thank you and love it that you save these turtles.

Heavy filtration and a gentle basking light. Also a soft transition to land.

You need to put real grass because they will try to eat it and can die.

OMG! WHAT A FANTASTIC POND AND WATERFALLS. LOVE TURTLES TOO. BROUGHT 6 HOME FROM MISSOURI BUT WENT AWAY FOR A WEEK AND ALL ESCAPED THEIR ENCLOSURE AND RAN AWAY. LITTLE ONES SOOO CUTE.

I really love the turtle videos, good change of pace and nice content

John Jacob Jingle Heimer Schmidt 😂🤣

You're a turtle dad! Nice job. I hatched 8 snapping turtle eggs myself. It was really cool watching them come alive. Keep up the great vids.

I thought HE WAS TRYING TO EAT THE TURTLE lol when he said he was almost ready to eat lolll

Put some of the birthing mixture in around the rocks. They need that feeling of security. Good luck

the accent and the wholesome content could make me cry on a bad day 😭😭

I love this couple. So authentic.

The plans have really filled in nicely around the pond, it looks great!

The yellow tip on their nose might be their egg tooth. a single tooth used to open the egg shells from the inside.

I got the names Leonardo Michelangelo Donatello Raphael Tokka . (tmnt 2 1991 live action turtle enemy)

Just discovered you thanks to my husband... I'm so intrigued, and so confused at the same time. I never knew watching fish could be so interesting!!! Thanks for the videos!

First time seeing handling baby turtles so gently. Good work on taking care of the baby turtles

Pokemon names #007=Squirtle #008=Wartortle #009= Blastoise #564=Tirtouga #565=Carracosta

In the new pond put an island called turtle island and shape it like a turtle using rocks

yesterday a pretty Painted Turtle came back to my yard and laid eggs, I marked the place, can't wait to see babies.. first time to see a gorgeous colored turtle in my life. Two years ago there's a huge Snapping Turtle laid her eggs on the parking area, got 27 babies. They were so cute and fun to watch while they crawl their way to the nearby natural pond.

Leonardo Michaelangelo Raphael Donatello And because there's only four Ninja turtles, go with squirt from finding nemo

Another suggestion from another Bama boy Saban, Bear, Stallings, Wade, and Thomas all of Bama's national championship coaches

Name one of them the ups driver that told you about them

I think you’re doing a wonderful job so far, I am a turtle mom myself. I’d recommend putting a cover over their temporary home, to avoid natural predators, especially since you will be away. Also, be careful, I would not recommend plastic plants. Young turtles are known to mistake them for the real thing. Also, stay away in general from tiny rocks. They tend to mistake them for food. Hope this helps!👍

*One of those little guys has to be called Squirtle!!!*

Since they were born near the 4th, Adams, Washington, Jefferson, Franklin, and Madison!

Now you need a rat and some pizza!

God bless you for saving those little turtles 🐢🐢🐢🐢

Awesome! Watched your vids building your pond! Looks like a common painted turtle

Love the videos, keep them coming my friend.

Stan, Kyle,Eric, Kenny and Butters....the South Park boys.😁

Good job taking care of those turtles. Obviously you did it right considering all 5 hatched.

I would purchase some live aquatic plants and let them float on the surface, baby turtles like to hide under them.

The reason why they have a little yellow tip on their nose is because when birds and reptiles are hatching, they use that to help crack open the shell

No red at all on the head, so it's not a red eared slider. Plus the very vibrant yellow, pretty sure it's a yellow bellied slider. They'll end up with freakin beautiful shells and most of the yellow on their bodies will remain that vibrant.

If you leave baby turtles in a pond they’ll get eaten by birds

Love the vid good job! Im ready to see the names of the turtles as they grow up! Also cant wait to finnaly hear the names of the toads/frogs!

Moe, Larry, Curley, Shemp and Curly Joe..... All 5 Stooges

I love your vids Bam’s keep it going

This is awesome just watching the baby turtles keep up the great work

The Moby feeding clips are so cool!

"The James-Younger Gang" Jesse James, Frank James, John Jarret, Aurthur McCoy, George Shepard

All the people saying there were 4 Ninja Turtles--there were 5 briefly. Venus de Milo was the fifth, and female, Ninja Turtle in the "Next Mutation" series.

Ugh I want to start building a pond everytime I see yours. But where to find time...lol. amazing job man!

' awww baby turtles are soooo beautifully sweety tiny cute pat pets

Name them like the TMNT + Splinter even though it's a turtle, nice video bro!

I love living in Alabama its a mazing 💪🏼

They look like yellow bellies but red eared are more common. It might take a few days for the “red ear” to develop on them also good luck taking care of them.

can we just appreciate how clear the water is

I think naming them after planets would be awesome! Like: Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn!

Turtle Names: Birmingham (Birm) Tuscaloosa (Tusc) Huntsville (Hunt) Auborn (Aubby) and Montgomery (Monty) 😊

That turtle pond is a great idea and will look awesome

They are so adorable!!!!

Congrats on 400k🎉

I just love the way you talk. I'd hang out with ya. Cute turtles. Good video

The pond looks incredible

Lol you were worried the other two didn't make it. I've dealt with turtles my whole life and they are ridiculously tough creatures.

The yellow bump on the baby turtles face is there egg tooth

Always use real plants looks nicer In the pond and is healthier for the turtles!

I'm pretty sure those are red ear sliders. I found one at work,at the airport of all places to find a baby turtle. I raised it. She's a little over 6yrs old now. Take that plastic grass out of there,they'll test bite just about anything and they'll probably eat that grass. Also don't use small fish tank gravel,they'll eat that too. I feed mine Omega One Diet and river shrimp and lettuce, raw chicken, hamburger and blueberries,live goldfish. They will eat earthworms but I don't feed mine earthworms because they can carry parasites and infect the turtle. Mine loves little peices of fruit,banana,apple,strawberries. It is important to give them protein when they're young,but not too much. Too much protein can make the body grow faster than the shell. It can also cause shell to pyramid,Basically cause the shell to be lumpy instead of,normally smooth. They like water temp about 76-82F. It is important that they get access to leafy greens,they'll probably prefer the protein foods. When they're adults 80% of their diet is vegetarian. Might want to just keep lettuce in the tank at all times and then feed them the turtle food. FYI,the green reptile sticks, I can't remember the brand. I remember that they were green sticks for baby turtles,my vet said they're pretty low quality food. Mine is a female,I didn't know exactly what my turtle was to begin with but I found out it was a female when she laid eggs a couple years ago. So I changed Fred's name to Frida. Males will develop really long front claws,you probably won't be able to tell the difference between the sexes for awhile,well until the male's claws start to grow longer. I learned quite a bit about raising mine if you have any questions you can message me back if you like.

They're so cute!!!! love them

You're lucky zombies and Pigmen were not around there!

1. King Arthur 2. Sir Lancelot 3. Sir Galahad 4. Sir Percivale 5. Merlin

The biggest should be called "Gamera"! That giant monster turtle stole my heart.

Awww they're so small and cute!

Slider, spot, pris short for prisoner like how your bluegill is sheriff, roady because there were on the side of the road and Sarah

spread the rocks around so they don’t need to go there for one rest it will tire them

That little yellow tip is most likely their egg tooth. They are definitely sliders. The red eared sliders will have very bright red stripes on either side of their head. I didn't see those stripes on your little turtles. The pattern looks closer to a Cumberland - they have the broad yellow stripe on their face & the single yellow stripe down their legs is leading me in that direction. The good thing is, the care requirements for all sliders are pretty much the same. I'm not sure if you're keeping that tub outside, but if they aren't - you will want to provide a UVB bulb for them. As youngsters they're likely going to eat pellets & crickets. You'll want to feed the crickets (carrots, potato, etc) before feeding to the turtles. You can feed them out of the enclosure to try to minimize water changes - but you're going to want to do those frequently. They need the water to digest their food properly. As they get older, the depth of the water can be increased to encourage them to build muscles to swim. When you build the pond system, a really good filter is key. A fence around the pond will also help the turtles not run away. They should have a few areas to get out of the water to bask, and shade areas. The males will (as adults) grow very long front claws. The females get larger. You might? want to look into a mesh or wire to cover the top of the pond to keep predators out. (Birds will go after baby turtles)

Big Jo, Kelly ,oddball ,crapgame and cowboy turtle 🤣

@bamabass *Here is 3 name's to consider, Myrtle and the two that look most alike, Cuff & Link.*

11:11 The fish escaped through the gills xD

Cool Vid. I look forward to seeing those turtles grow up on your channel 👍

Great job. make sure to build a Sandy Beach when you build the pond...... They will come out at night when all is quite to sleep.... don't forget!

Name them after the apostles. Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. Then name the last one something totally irrelevant like jimmy neutron!🤣🤣🤣

The yellow tip on their nose they use to break out of their shell.

Gosh dang I love turtles! Name one BB since you found them outside a Best Buy, and the rest name after some sweet reels. Pflueger, Shimano, Daiwa, Okuma. Awesome video!!

That yellow tip at 8:48 is their egg tooth. They use that to cut open the leathery shell. It falls off after about 10 to 11 days

You should definitely put some of that sand in around those rocks! They'll sun when they're cold but they'll submerge and swim to help regulate their temperature, and hide in the sand to feel safe if there's enough above the waterline! 🐢 Plus, as a bonus teeny little snails will emerge from the sandy bottom and crawl around everywhere and it helps to supplement the turtle's diet while teaching them to hunt! Here's, "Turtle Girl," feeding her turtles live snails, etc.; ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-H4scx3cup9E.html And, here's more; ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-rbiwClhDLtI.html You've probably already seen them all lol but they're quick little videos. 🤜💥🤛 (That helps quite a bit for later when they're large enough to chase down their feeder fish!)

Cumberland sliders because of the spots on the belly

Alex - Testament guitarist Dime - Pantera guitarist Chris - Lamb Of God drummer Lemmy - Motorhead bassist Layne - Alice In Chains vocalist I chose these names 'cos it sounds unisex.. And now they're a super band! 😁♥️

Soooo cute!🐢
