My own experience

The First Experience with turtles is for one of the team( gamala.asi25) . Another amature who interests in taking care of turtles tells us  about his new experience . He says " whenI started researching for turtle I also started writing down the things I learned  to take care of my turtle which I bought since 2000".As I have little experience in bringing up turtle I begin to search for lots of information either by reading or log in the net. Finally I wrote the good staff of information that improve my turtle without costing me a for tune .

  After ten years of research I ended up with three big folders full of notes ,print outs and pages from books , magazines and newspapers Thats are portfolio  about turtles. I have used this information to increace my knowledge and improve my turtle life.Whether it is by improving  his invernoments or diet or learning Vital turtle first aid skills that ensure I can save his life when an illness or accidents strikes.
I have everything I need in these folders. So you should compile all the information, knowledge and facts about turtle guide. This big turtle guide is better than single guide because it includes a combination of everything I have read.
