    Attachments :This is a great new product out that my husband and I have seen in person! Pete is a really great guy and has been into turtles all his life and is a captive breeder of domestic and exotic turtles since 1978. Just thought I’d pass this on to all of you. For those that are not handy building stuff – this is a great alternative! Sharon Turtlingpete presents a GREAT new Reptile

    Sharon, Maybe you could clue us in as to how it works, exactly – I can’t seem to figure it out! Thanks. -Chun — In diamondbackterrapins@y…, Tom & Sharon Paquette

    Hi Chun! I didn’t give it much thought because I saw it in person but now that you mention it – it does need a little clarification! 2/3 of the bin holds your water and the other 1/3 is where you can put substrate for basking and laying of eggs. The ramp is grooved for footing. It is made out of some type of composite which is easy to clean and is attractive. Pete plans on having more sizes available. Hope this answers some of your questions. Sharon Chun-Ming Chew wrote:

    Oh, I see – sort of a vivarium concept. I initially thought it was meant to be filled with water and that the ramp was some sort of grate that separated the laid eggs from the turtle and water… My bad – thanks for the clarification! -Chun — In diamondbackterrapins@y…, Tom & Sharon Paquette http://docs.yahoo.com/info/terms/

    Hi, I think the setup would work for spotted turtles but I don’t think it is deep enough for diamondbacks.
