This is a pond we have built at the country house, so that
when we go on vacation, Tutu and Tuga take vacations too.
|
|
|
The pond is just a plastic pond shaped that has been set at
ground level.
|
|
|
Around the pond we have installed a small fence (see it at
left), so that the turtles can't get away and hide. We left enough
land around for them to move comfortably and bask.
|
|
|
The pond is decorated with some stones to ease getting in and
out of it and also because I have noticed that my turtles prefer to bask
on top of rocks.
|
|
|
We have also set up some water hyacinths on it so that they
will help me filter the water.
|
|
|
The plants around the pond are wild. We just left some
grass for them to move easily but our main idea is for it to look as wild
as possible.
|
|
|
They just love taking vacations!
|
|
|
While not on vacations, during the summer, they spend their
sunny days at a kiddie pool that we have set on a balcony. They love
this one too!
