    I a looking for a small slider for my goldfish pond, if anyone comes across on while fishing or whatever I would appreciate it. Yes I know they sell them at the pet shops but those are to big to go in with my goldfish. Text 501-425-4622

    Actually, selling baby sliders is against the law since the babies typically carry a form of salmonella that is contagious to humans and can be fatal to children. So you're best bet is to find one from someone fishing. Just be sure to wash hands well. I had one growing up that I caught at the lake, lived for several years.

    To add to the hysterical of selling turtles. Red Ears are prodominately native to Arkansas. However any red ear you see in a pet store at one point or another came from a breeder in florida...

    I'll keep a look out of a baby one for you, just make sure it grows up eating pellets only or you might miss a gold fish from time to time.
