Well the wound is fairly new(was bleeding pretty good)but I've cleaned it off and put neosporin on it and covered with a gauze.Waiting for my vet to call tonight but he didn't,so tomorrow she'll be going.I do know the laws (Mass) but my vet takes care of my spotteds (all CB bought in Fla.)He wont turn away this girl.Hopefuly she's gonna be fine and back to the marsh she goes.I'll see about some pics, I'm sure my wife has some of the spotteds nesting in the yard from last yr.My yard is like spotted heaven during the nesting season.As for covering the nests I know for sure to be there,I'm all over that.Looks funny mowing the lawn around little wire domes out there but w/e.Curtis, looks like you have a female there (still small)but my guess is female.As for males and them getting aggresive,my male was fine with the 2 females, then he just had a hormone boost or somthing.Just the last cpl weeks he's been going crazy.Time for another tank (wifes gonna love that). Hate to seperate them but until I get my dream outdoor pond it's just gonna have to be.You guys think a large tank, say 150 gallon with 2 females and 1 male, the girls would be able to hide enough from the little turtle pimp,or just seperate them completly?
