albino red eared slider

turtletony Sep 07, 2005 09:51 AM

i,ve been collecting turtles for the better part of 20 years. but have just rescently decided to down size (with the exception of a few that have become family members) and start collected rare mutations such as albinos and ultra pastels. i just purchased my first albino temp sexed female res at the daytona show. seemed healthy clear eyed and alert. doesnt float and swims like a bullet. but i cant get her to eat . ive tried ghost shrimp minnows tadpoles worms anckris plant and commercial food. but she wants nothing. i know they can go awile without eating but im not takeing any chances. any suggestions. and also if any body can recomend a certain dealer for mutations please let me know .

Make sure the water in her enclosure is the right temperature. Make sure she has a good basking area. Places to hide. Then offer her food.
