TOUR of My HUGE TURTLE POND! (Where have the turtles been?)

#turtlepond #turtlecare #turtle

Naturalistic keeping of turtles and tortoises is what we aim for here at @GardenStateTortoise and that means our animals get to live as close to a natural life as possible! Many of the turtle species we keep go through an annual cycle meaning they hibernate or Brumate (the reptile version of hibernation) in the winter. For the last several months our outdoor turtles have been MIA! We don’t get to see them much during the winter months but now that it’s spring they are emerging! This is both an exciting and stressful time because although we get to be reunited with our turtles, we also get to find out if they made it through the cold months and if they’re in good shape. Come take a tour of our HUGE outdoor turtle pond and learn about several amazing turtle species while we check on them!
