Getting Started
Having all of the supplies you need to keep your red-eared slider comfortable and healthy is one of the most important aspects of being a turtle owner. The following is a list of some suggested items:
- Cage (must be water-tight and have space for both a water area and a land area)
- Heat Source (basking light and possibly a water heater)
- Lighting (UVB light)
- Substrate
- Food (commercial turtle food; crickets; vegetable matter)
- Calcium supplement
