I have an above-tank basking area, so sometimes when I stand in front of it, my turtle would climb up and walk towards me. Then she just stares at me with her lil green eyes and it's adorable.

hey ive had a hard week my bestfriend/dog had a heart attack and passed away and this made my day better love the vids

so glad i found this channel!! i genuinely love your content 100% ❤️❤️❤️

Good tips Dan! Sad to say I’m going to be going away for a couple of months but good luck with the content and hope to see your channel grow when I come back.

Really like your video's, would love to make a pond for mt dbt but the temperatures in the Netherlands won't allow it sadly

You are the best person ever you taught me so much thank you I have African Side neck Turtle 🐢

Nobody: Dan thinking about basking turtles: ŃÛt🥜

My giant sized 12 year old Redfoot Tortoise has been whistling for years ,since he was small. no foaming or any other problems since. So true.

Yo my eastern painted whistles/hisses sometimes, especially if he quickly sucks his head in. But he grows, eats well(he loves his food omg), extremely active etc. I was worried he has ri but i read he should have symptoms but does not. Glad im not the only one. This video was helpful and definitely want to get my little guy outdoors during the summer. Keep it up!

I do worry lol ive been watching so many videos purchased stock tank and fluval 306 im getting baby diamond backs hopefully all will be ok lol

Got my tshirt! It’s awesome! Thank you Any pearls of wisdom you can share for keeping my turtles and the tortoises too, outside? One by one they come back to the sliding glass door banging on it until they are let back inside to roam around the house? Only my little Painted male, Angel, will stay out until I bring him back in for the night. I’ve even taken my biggest tort, Georgie, into the front yard and he knows where the door is to go back in. Can you say spoiled? 😂😂

That pic kills me every time, Dan!

I just lost one of my loved turts...my Pearl River Map got in a bad accident.. At what temp do you keep your babies in the glass tank? I also have a painted that whistles and have nose bubbles. She has been on 3 different types of antibiotics but she doesn't get better

As things progress with my gupy breeding, would you like to be taking Guppies to stock up your ponds? Interesting fact you may not know, doctor pirxy lo in Pasadena in a turtle breeder. Of albino and snow Sliders. Who teaches medical courses at your old college.

That OG picture though

I have a beautiful albino soft shell tortise... His name is Ivory (IVO). I see he does recognize me and comes up to greet me and get some treats. 😂😂 😂. But I have never seen him basking in the sunlight. 🤔

I just got a baby giant musk turtle I have two different aquariums I'm just wondering can it live with other turtles that is not it own species

Dude I spend 3 minutes trying to pause on the "yuh" bit

Yeeh🎉

Should turtles have a buddy? Like we have one turtle (a yellow bellied slider) and I feel like he’s bored all the time. I don’t know I just want to do what’s right. I just don’t have a ton of money or room to upgrade past a 50 gallon tub. I could try for a 75 gallon eventually. But wouldn’t I need to double the size if I had double the turtles? And wouldn’t I need to get a much stronger filter and an extra basking area?

how many gallons is your tank?

Hello Dan this Quincy from Atlanta my river cooted turtle has this white bottom think its a fungus but she health an everything water change once a week she's fully functioning but this white looking bottom white should I do

Does anyone know where I can find info on how much to feed to one red eared slider the same size as his little babies behind him? I feel like I'm over feeding or under feeding her 😭 I'll have to look through here also 🙂👍🏻 Also, could I take her out to her tub during the day& bring her in at night? Or would that be too much stress? 👍🏻 Thanks in advance active that can help? Dan Thank you for all your videos as always 🙏🏻

I want to put my turtle outside during the summer but how could I hook up a filter

Can u do a video about their mating behavior? My turtles act weird. I cant tell who is male or female. The big one chases the smaller one. They are 3 years old. One is always scared the other is the boss.

Dan why is my turtle lazy it barely likes to walk I just got it a few days ago so I’m still setting things up I haven’t got a unveiling light so I’m really worried about it health and right now I’m working on getting a big tank for it it’s a baby so it makes me more worried for it’s health

You sell turtles 🐢? I want a black Diamond

I am looking for a pair of turtles that don't get any bigger then 5 inches and that are some what social , what kind do you sagest ?

Hey @DanTheTurtleMan I am going to get a painted turtle and I was wondering if I should get a baby or an adult. BTW I have been doing a ton of research.

the baby turtles are getting so big 😅😟

3:01 you have no idea

I tried putting my red ear slider in a tub and she won't eat her food. She only will eat in her tank.

I can’t even handle how adorably handsome you are. Lol

But I’m only ten and I arlready want to be a reptilian
