Can anyone recommend a good RES turtle forum?

[T Wright]

I rescued a Red Eared Slider Turtle this week, poor little guy was sooo neglected...the water was foul and I almost cried...so I took him away from the bad place!
My intension was to take him and house him for a short time until I could find him a new home...
Well the kids and hubby like him so he is staying...we began to research what he needs...WOW...high maintenance! But once we make a commitment to a pet we do the best we can...
I have found this site very helpful for our BD so I am hoping someone can help me with recommending a good forum like this to help me with our new turtle questions and concerns.

Thanks a bunch

PS the BD Ozzy is doing very well...brumating but doing well! I know this cause he is good and cranky when I wake him for his weekly bath! haha! So while he is being lower maintenance we can find our groove with the turtle...like I ahve nothing better to do...working full time, 3 kids, 3 dogs, 2 cats, 1 BD, 1 RES turtle and 1 Hubby! WHAT AM I THINKING!?! haha!

Perhaps you should post here: viewforum.php?f=21&st=0&sk=t&sd=d&start=0
I was going to move your thread to that forum but noticed that you posted about your beardie being in brumation at the end of your post, so I left it here instead.

Turtlesale.com has a forum. I have browsed it before. I have two red eared sliders. They are about seven years old. I got them when they were babies. I saw a bowl full of them in Chinatown, in NY. It is sad to see them like that. I wanted to rescue them all. But they grow to be fairly large and need swimming room. They are cool to watch! Good luck, Chris
