All, I think it’s time that we come up with an ongoing project for the group. I’d like to suggest developing a FAQ section for our members site as well as the general public on the geocities website. This should provide a good forum for pertinent and lively discussion. The FAQ should be exhaustive and cover everything and anything having to do with terps. This is my proposal: I’ll begin with 1 or 2 questions. Anybody can answer them and we’ll keep adding to the list. When conflicting answers are provided, we can go to a vote. If the question cannot be resolved with a vote, we may have to settle with 2 different opinions for that particular FAQ. Any questions? I’ll start with some sample questions:- Q: What are the little white worms ~1/8″-2/8″ in length that are sometimes found in turtle tanks? Are they harmful to terps? A: Q: How large must be a female terp be to be able to start producing viable eggs? A: Q: What are the sandy brown patches that are sometimes found on terps’ skin? Are they precursors to fungal infection? A:
The only one I know for sure is the female question. It depends on the terrapin. I am sure most don’t start breeding until they are 6.5′ but I am equally sure someone somewhere has breed them at 5′. My answer would be 6.5′ most of the time. Jonathan The Scute Moderator http://www.geocities.com/diamondbackterrapins — In diamondbackterrapins@y…, “Chun-Ming Chew”
