Hi, I'm Elmer, I am a Red Eared Slider. Here's a picture of me doing what I do the best...biting. I'll bite your finger or some meat, just the same to me. I'm 28 years old. I'm a girl. They never bothered to rename me even after I laid some eggs. I was bought from a Woolworth's in 1972. Baby turtles were no longer sold after 1973 and now there are no more Woolworth's.
I love to eat prepared turtle foods like Reptomin, Pretty Pets and Zoo-med. I adore crickets and mealworms. Occasionally I like to eat chicken or turkey. You should see me trying to eat a grape, it's like you trying to eat a basketball without your hands.
I love to bask on my branch in my tank.
Finally, the humans took a new
picture of me. Is this my better profile? More mature? More new pictures
are coming. Stay tuned.

When I was young, the only schools
were for fish, not turtles, so I didn't learn to read. But if I could,
I'd read these stories.

Speaking of which, did any of you
catch the Todd
Mundt Show from Michigan Public Radio in March? Did they talk
about little old me?
In association with Amazon.com,
you can order books on turtle care.
Just type in turtles as pets in
the form below.
I especially like these books.
