Debra - Adult Female Red Eared Slider turtle

About Me: I was being sold illegally and someone bought me. After realizing that I was not the easy-care pet they thought I would be, they called Indiana Turtle Care to find a better home for me. They fed me too much and too often so I am bigger than I should be and my shell isn't the way it should be.

Nicknames: Deb

My Motto: Born to be wild so keep me that way.

Likes: Playing in the pond plants and basking in the sun on the log or side of the pond.

Pet-peeves: People who take turtles from the wild for pets.

Best Tricks: Sliding into the pond when someone comes too close.

Favorite Activities: Laying around the pond in the sun.

Favorite Walk: I take a stroll around the pond. Mom has it fenced nicely so I have a boundary and am safe.
