From the Foster Family: Biggie is a female yellow-eared slider who is approximately 11 old( They can live to be 30-40 years). She is very lively and greets anyone who comes near her tank. Biggie is about 7 inches long from head to tail and is expected to grow as she ages. She is a good eater. Her diet consists of 1 leaf of lettuce daily (the size of her shell), then pellets every other day as well as the lettuce. She is also given 1 little piece of shrimp daily as a treat.

Biggie is a very fun and silly turtle. She loves swimming in her tank and basking under her lights. At this time, she will require at least a 75-gallon tank due to her growing size. She will need a large basking dock that she will be able to climb up onto.

Biggie is a very majestic animal and there is something to be said about the qualities that a turtle possesses. She is graceful, joyful, and calming. Biggie is our daily reminder to slow down and go with the flow.
