My 3-Toed's Colors Improving

curtis9980 Jul 11, 2008 10:42 AM

When putting the turtles up for the night last night, I noticed that my male 3-toed is really coloring up. I've only had him about a month now, but his color on his cheeks and more on his beak are really brightning. It's a pretty peach to bright orange color.

I'm sure it's a combination of a better balanced diet, his maturation process, and being around a female. This is the best picture I could get of him. My camera's not the best.

Better diet, less stress, he's got a girlfriend now, life is good, he's a happy boy now, and it's showing, you can actually see the results of your efforts paying off, good for you!!!
