Toby The Turtle

About Toby

Hi, I'm Toby, I live in a comfortable tank in a house in South Australia. I am around the age of four and I have grown so much over the last few years. At home I eat turtle frozen food and if I am lucky, some frozen salmon.

About the breed

In the wild, I live in the Murray River of South Australia, for I am a Murray River Short-necked Turtle.

Owning a Turtle

If you want to own a turtle, you will have to look after us well. Here are a few tips on how to look after us:

*Feed us one block of turtle food every day

*Make sure we have a working filter

*Clean out our tank once a month

*We like to spend some time outdoors, so remember to let us out, but not out of sight.

Things Toby can do

I don't like to boast, but here is a list:

*Find small, unusual hiding spots

*Swim very fast in water

*Gobble down turtle food very quickly

*Crawl away so slowly that you can't find me.

Thank you for reading about me - Toby
