FS: 4 year old male Red Ear Slider Turtle. He’s about the size of a dessert plate. His name is “Badger”… and he does bite.

Comes with: 55G tank, Stand, 2 heaters, basking light, floating platform, and canister filter.

It’s my ex-wife’s turtle, and her new BF she’s moving in with won’t allow her to take it, and she doesn’t really want it anymore.

$50 adoption fee (The tank, heaters, light, and canister filter are worth about 10x that).

Want to make sure he goes to a good home.

Are desert plates bigger than temperate plates? Does that have something to do with the arid climate?

Not sure how much that plate size differs 😛 lol

Dessert Plate… he’s about 5-6" across.

I’m tired… Snowboarding above 8k feet down 2-3 mile runs takes it toll.
