I forgot to tell you to always let it soak in water, most especially when there is heat.(Like how humans soak inside pool) look for large bowl that you can put water. Let it have the aquatic feeling for some hours atleast once in a day.

Its already in a drum now, but I'm scared it wouldn't want to stay in water always.

Cats are not very popular in Nigeria. And you’d need to get both sex if you intend breeding them.

Please recommend,


Where to get one, big/fluffy.

Pls cry

Get a glass acquriun filled with sand.
Get a small flat rubber like a basin fill it with water.
In the acqurium, tilt the rubber or basin with water so that the turtle easily get access.
Buy 4.5 mm feed place it on the water in the basic, when ever the turtle comes in he feed on the floating food on the water.

You can make a shallow pond with a little bit of space so it can roam and feel like a turtle and not a tortoise, they like cucumbers and bananas and other fruits...

It can only be money if you're taking it to a babalawo along with other requirements for money Rituals.
That baby turtle is not even matured for eating,very common in Benin marketplaces,you can get it for 2k.
I can get one for you if you doubt.
Mostly where they sell those native pots and charms in Edo,you will also find live pigeons and turtles.

Oh, I wish I could get one from you..

that's just the problem though,

I'd have got one a long time ago if not for the expenses, I got a friend abroad who's willing to trip me one down here, but procedures are just too annoying,

Hence my enquiry to get one here locally..

Look around you should see one i believe. If I have a reason to travel early next year if it wont cost me a fortune, I might add a fluffy kittten to my baggage for you but you will pay for purchase of the kitten except God says otherwise sha. Till then keep your account active.

How do you mean?!
At least,you didn't call me a liar.
One reason why I had to stop at the market and do this.
Seller:Oga,how many you want?!Na our sea water turtle be that black one,na 2500. The rest,small ones na 2k while the big ones na 2500 to 5k depending on the one you want.
So brother,I don't understand your point really.

Lovely

Put it where it can roam especially in the day time (under the sunlight)
Pls don't keep it in an enclosure that is too tight, let it roam and feed it.
They are lovely creatures.

They like fruits, cucumber orange and other fruits.


Let me warn u don't try and put your finger in its anus cos ur finger will be trapped
Turtle anal "finger" trap... LMAO.
Oh, wow! grin
