Belisama is a Red-Eared Slider turtle who's birthday is estimated to be August 2020. She is very curious and will swim up to pop her head out of the water to watch her surroundings. Her appetite is very healthy and LOVES food. Her favorite treats are apples, crickets, and dried shrimp. She'll also gobble up the occasional carrot. Her main diet should include a variety of frozen adult turtle food cubes, nutri-sticks, turtle pellets, lettuces (like romaine), and mealworms. Some treats Belisama would love to try from you are freeze-dried chicken/duck/fish cubes. Since Belisama is a female, she'll be a little bigger - about 8 inch shell size currently - so she will need a minimum of 80 gallon tank size (but would love larger). She'll also need an adequate basking area that'll hold her weight and that she can fit fully onto.
From the Foster family: Hey! I'm Belisama. I came into rescue with 4 other turtle friends. I'm loving my larger tank and a little peace and quiet. My foster family said they named me Belisama after the Celtic goddess of lakes, rivers, fire, crafts, and light. They say I'm soothing to have as a companion and enjoy my company a lot. They allow me to sunbathe outside on lovely hot days, which is one of my favorite activities. Though I'm worried about birds so I stay in my shell mostly outside. I'm the shy gal of the home, but that means I'm a fantastic listener. I'd love to listen to your stories all day.
