Ordering A Rare Baby Turtle In The Mail! 

Just want to be clear, this turtle was shipped overnight. It took 5 days to arrive because this company doesn’t ship on weekends. The turtle was in the box for less than 24 hours. This is not abusive, I guarantee the turtle slept through nearly the entire trip. He’s also captive bred, meaning he simply would not even know how to survive in the wild. I promise he’s in good care. Anyways, thanks for watching, & if you wanna see more turtle/fish content, please consider subscribing!

"Be nice that's your lil brother" got my heart 😂💓

I love when moms baby talk our baby turtles. It’s the cutest thing ever. Melts my heart , especially because my mom is that OG old school mean looking and sounding Hispanic mom until she sees my hatchling southern painted turtle Donatello Linebacker and the baby talk begins lol

*Nobody:* .... *Carson:* .."ToBy tHe tUrTlE" Just teasing, Toby is an adorable name.

My lizard went paralyzed neck down from eating sand out the pet store. They had even suggested it as the go to. He lived another 6 years before and passing. Mans was a beast, learned how to catch crickets while only being able to flip n roll

Before he opened the box, there was a reality in which there was a dead baby turtle in the box. The moment he opened the box and seen that there was an alive baby turtle in the box is when it became a reality. I call it Carson's baby turtle theory.

I used the Turtle source to get my two mud turtles. I was pretty happy with them. Your new baby is gorgeous! Your and, especially, your mom’s reactions are so sweet and wholesome! Congrats on your new turtle baby!

I want one so bad!! Also when you hit a big milestone you should get an albino red eared slider 👀

When you showed your mom the turt my heart swelled

I'm glad im sober or I would've ordered one right away

Thanks for watching! Y’all held up your end of the deal, & I’m a man of my word, so everyone meet Toby the pink belly sideneck turtle! Let me know what you think about him⬇️

If you told me this was the "I like turtles" kid I would believe you

You are the best youtuber I now and I am never going to stop watching you happy that your channel exist. Keep up the great work 1 million soon!!!!

He’s adorable 🥰 can’t wait to see him grow.. so want one

“Hello?” I busted out laughing 😭

Man he is TINYY. Thats an awesome little guy. And the turtle source did a good job packaging him.

Stones are also really aesthetically pleasing! My husband & daughter have a tradition of going to the river to hunt for new ones to put in our turtle tank.

Congrats on 15k brotha, channel is growing like crazy. Love to see it 📈

Toby and Sheldon Jr. - brothers from another mother- Toby is adorable and they look great in the tank together- you are incredibly caring with your animals - you are an inspiration to everyone who watches your videos !

Thank you for posting your video and the education. We ordered from this great company a pink belly-side neck turtle. We followed all your advice. Now my daughter is happy and we love your pink belly turtle. Thank you for your video.

In my country if you would send a living animal by mail, both the sender and the recipient would go to jail.

Yes I love pink belly sideneck! Congrats on the new turtle Carson!

I just came across this channel a few days ago and I love it!!! your vids are awesome, and I’ve learned so much on how to take care of my own baby turtle.

Toby is adorable, I got a baby turtle recently too (Mississippi Map) and I wasn't expecting him to be that small either. Can't wait to see more I love your turtle videos :)

OMG I literally just ordered a turtle today from the Turtle Source! He is coming tomorrow! So excited! Love your new side neck! So tiny and cute!!! Glad you had a good experience. I heard good things about them.

I got my yellow bellied slider and named him Sheldon in honor of the king Sheldon

What a cutie ! You just inspired me to get myself turtles ❤🥰 keep inspiring Carson !

Great video Carson, he is such a cute little turtle, great new addition to the channel, they both seem to be doing really well together, keep up the amazing work

Omg yes 23 minute posted :) I am sooo happy that you did it I’m so sorry about Sheldon but he’s happy in turtle heaven and hopefully they make you happy

I absolutely love his reaction to seeing the turtle! I legit Reacted the same when I got my lil guy! Soo damn cute❤🐢😍

keep it up with your turtle videos!!! always looking forward to watch them 😍 not to forget the other aquatics as well 😁

Yes new video keep it up, all these turtle videos are enjoyable and entertaining, this is the start of a new friendship and chapter for this channel

He’s like the size of an actual grape & I love him.😭😭

When you announced the name I was like "YES LETS GO TOBY!!!"

Thanks to you I’ve took the time to properly redo my red eared slider slider’s enclosure my boy Po is a happy little turtle, keep up the awesome vids

Absolutely love the videos man, keep it up and remember we all love you.

Thanks, now I want a turtle even more but they are illegal were I live!! Great video none the less

Make sure the pink belly side neck can’t get stuck in any wholes in the filter or decorations in the turtle tank.

Carson, i just want to say, you are amazing and because i have a red eared slider, you have been teaching me a LOT about turtles so i can take care of my little baby a bit better. So keep up the good work man :D

Also the tank looks really good with the rocks. Jr is seriously a charmer so adorable. Idk but to me there’s no better beggar than a Red eared slider lol

I love toby and sheldon jr.!!! they seen so cute togther!

I am small exotic youtuber here in my country, and I love the way how you care about your pets specially to your slider turtles and box turtles. -Your fan from the Philippines 🇵🇭

Your reaction when you first met him made me SO happy. lol Love at first sight.

“Hello hello sweeettiiieee”🥰 lol have her in more videos☺️💙

Watching these make me want a turtle of my own😭😭

It’s so funny how cheap turtles are in the states, here in Australia turtles are protected and we aren’t allowed foreign reptiles so an average price for a turtle is around $120 per turtle. Pink belly side necks are native to New Guinea and northern Australia and they are really rare and they average around $500 plus if you’re lucky

You and Sheldon both inspired me to get a baby turtle. The pet store had about 30-40 baby turtles in a 20 gallon tank half full!! Luckily bowser is in better hands now thanks to you. 🙏🏾 stay blessed.

Your such a cool person! Big inspiration to me and others alike, really glad your channel and you exist

Here in the area of Canada where I live, a pink belly side neck of this size would cost $250. So you got it pretty cheap

when i got my turtle, creek. my family and i were on a bike ride and we were on our way home. my stepdad and my siblings were in the front, i was in the middle and my mom was in the back, my stepdad, siblings and i were riding and my mom suddenly stopped and called “turtle!” i slammed on my breaks and propped my bike up as i saw the turtle, my mom picked up the turtle “can i hold it?” i asked, visibly eager my mom nodded “okay, be careful though, it’s probably scared.” she said as she gave me the turtle. time skip to when we came home, we brought the turtle home and my mom instantly got onto her phone and started some research, mostly how to tell what it’s gender was, “its a girl.” she confirmed. “can we keep her?” i asked, my mom gave me a hesitant glance “i’ll talk with bill.” (bill is my stepdad) i walked over to the container the turtle was in “im going to name you creek.” i said, proudly my mom gave me the “dont get too attached” look. my cat, lily kept trying to eat creek so we put the container she was in into a box. creek also looked about 3 months old. she was quite small and her shell was cracked. the next day my mom was on her phone as i went downstairs “what are you doing?” i asked. she looked focused “getting a tank for the turtle.” she replied, not looking up from her phone “we’re keeping her?” my heart exploded out of my chest “we’re keeping her.” one hour later my mom and i went to our local petsmart to pick up the tank. once we got home we set up the tank and a few hours later my dad and came to my moms house to pick me up because i get to go to his house every other weekend then i started researching about turtles on youtube and i found your channel. i was really anxious to be away from the turtle because im practically the only one in my mom’s household who can keep an aquatic pet alive but i came back and she was alive. its been about 2 months since we got her. thank you for everything and for teaching me so so much:)

I loved your video! You can tell you treat them well! Junior is so happy 😀

I ended up going to my local dollar tree and buying 20 bags of their river rocks. Best $20 turtle tank accessory ever. Being a 9 inch long red eared slider, I just picked out any of the rocks I thought could fit in Turbo's mouth. Very pretty little turtle!

He’s named after Tobirama senju that’s honorable

i had a baby turtle when i was a kid but i couldnt take care of it so my family told me to free him so he doesnt die because of me. that was around 7 or 8 years ago so i wonder if he is still alive.

He's beautiful! It's official, you've convinced me to get a pink bellied sideneck once I make the move the NC. Thanks for the video!

Absolutely adorable. And I can't help but adore Sheldon Jr. as he continues to try and take the spotlight to get food. Also, I have a Red-eared Slider baby of my own, so seeing Tobi be so small compared to Jr. really surprised me. P.S.- Loved it when Jr. had his foot on Toby, so cute.

Carson: Hit that like button for me Me: ( hits like button ) Carson: Thank you Me: ... ya welcome😊

Imagine being a living being that just been shipped in a small box for I don’t know how long

The sand looks dope. You can also do a tank cover for the top where you can hide the basking area/lights. Makes the tank look a lot nicer. I would have left the sand. Maybe harder to clean though. Get some driftwood, attach some anubias. maybe get some co2 going. better lighting, etc.

Happy this worked out Carson - you sure do deserve a break after your ordeal - hope they live long and healthy - cheers

When should I feed my turtle? He's always begging and I only try and feed once a day. What time of the day is a good time

Don't know how I feel about literally being able to order animals

Toby is such a cutie! Glad him and SJ (Sheldon Jr.) get along well! Keep up the great videos! Thanks for great content! 😊✌🏼

Great videos! My little girls are super excited to watch the little ones grow up.

Like if u thought the thumbnail was a bakugan🤣

Name the new turtle Jimmy that is a great name!!!

Hey CARSON! TOBY IS SUCH A COOL TURTLE AND KEEP UP THE GREAT VIDEOS! 🐢

I am sure they have come together to conspire against you in the night. 😂😂 Love them 🙏🏼

Yo anyone still here in 2024

Aw what a cutie glad he arrived safely

I love how cooperative Sheldon is he responds to you very well you gotta love alert turtles

Both or your turtles are so cute! I have two turtles myself, one is 11 inches long and the other is 7 inches long! You’re videos are amazing!!! Thank you Carson!

I had a Red Bellied Side neck turtle. They're fine critters they are. We are thrilled to see this little one grow.

He is a really cute turtle and I started watching your vids about a month back and I absolutely love them keep up the good work

Omg the rocks look SOOOO much better! Awesome!!

I'm very exited for you're new amazing video j can't wait its like a series for me this channel is amazing

OMG! Toby was the most amazing turtle that I saw. Your video is cool, keep up with the good work!

Oh my goodness, that's got to be one of the cutest species of turtle.

Wow awesome video man 😍 both the turtles looks so nice , definitely plus to your channel both of them look superb

You are such an inspiration and when I found out you live an hour away and I have a turtle I was exited and I’ve been watching for 5 months

5:11 it’s so cute when he says be nice it’s your little brother

I got one of my pet tortoises from The Turtle Source! I've had him for over a year now, and he's great!

I have four red-eared sliders and it is crazy how fast they grow so enjoy their little days they won't last long

I subscribed the second I saw u change yur substrate :) I've had my red ear/yellow belly slider hybrid turtle for 8 years and LOVE reptiles... Since Speedy (my turtle), I've become the adoptive mom of an Albino African clawed frog, 3 dwarf frogs and a leapard gecko. This video made me very happy :)

I used to catch and release baby hog nose alligator snapping turtles that were that same size. There was a giant mother living in the pond by my house and she kept that pond stocked with her babies.

Thanks a bunch for the info. Am going to be receiving a pink belly via FedEx this week and was wondering the best first steps with the little one. Also had no idea they might not eat for several days. Thanks so much. I would've been worried.

Awesome! Can see how happy junior is

Hey Carson I really like the water up I have for these guys and I'm glad to see that they Sheldon took to him well I think this is a good example on the max size difference between the two.once R.E.S get to a age\size can tend to be piggies let's eat first find out later. Anyways there I one major thing I want to recommend is (especially from pet stores) when getting a new additions may it be turtle, plant, fish (rock ,pebbles you can boil) is to have a 2wk quarantine set up, just so you can see how their health is checking for any kind of contagion or something that can be detrimental to your set up. Also this most important if you use feeder fish you should set up your own, that way you know there diet and their environment, not quarntining is one of the most common way people loose their little.buddies to entire paladuims I myself lost an entire 50gl of 25-30 Cichlids had one demsy and one of 2 Oscar make it all for a parisite from a pair of Cichlids I order online the store had an amazing reputation I had purchase for other online aquatic it just so happens this place has exactly what I was looking for, and about half the price😓 got them next day female died 3-4 days after I chalked it up to shock then the male died 3days later I noticed some issues and had some concerns but I was blind sided a month and a half later lost 99% so take my advice and quarantine

You inspire me to get a turtle I love you vids and I will keep watching them until I turn 18 you made me have a better personality thank you keep making videos and keep grinding

That's where I got my Neo! Will get my next few turtles from that website again. Toby is wonderful man those colors are something else

Toby from the office 👌🏻 perfect name. He is too cute and so tiny! I’m so jealous my two pink belly hatchlings started fighting

Toby is a trooper for being in that box

I got my two baby mud turtles from them! Luckily I live in Florida, so the trip wasn’t too far. Just keep an eye on him bc my turtles got to me with beginning stages of a respiratory infection. Not sure if it was from their hatchery or just traveling, but just keep an eye on him! I took my babies to the vet, and they said since they were so small it’d very hard to give them antibiotics bc they have to do it by injection. But they were stable and not in desperate need of medication. I’ve just been keeping their temps at the higher end of the recommended range, and they’ve been doing great. Baby turtles are notorious for weak immune systems. Just a heads up!! Toby is frickin adorable.

Omg so cute! I got my turtle hatchling online via overnight shipping also. I want an African Sideneck next.

I’m obsessed with Toby and Jr.. I can’t wait to get my first baby turtle. I love them.

Toby is such a cute turtle! I have a African Sideneck turtle named Copper and she is amazing!

I’ve had my Cumberland slider for 2 months now and I ordered a red bellied northern cooter for him about a month ago from My Turtle Store. I can’t wait to see more of Toby the Turt!🙏🏽

Cool turtle! Like your tank setup

He’s like a penny in size he’s so adorable and small. He’s very fragile like my baby bearded dragon. Take care of him well.

Cool vid bro I enjoy how you bring mom to be part of your vid shows you keep it real bro great job !
