Well, you are not wrong, when you say that he is the cutest thing ever! I'm certain, that your friend made a wise choice giving him to you, because you will make him live a long and happy life :D
Keep up the great work, my man :D
Thank you so much. I hope so!
bruh
Thanks for the help I found a baby soft shell in the road nowhere near a River in summer and he wasn’t moving so I put him in a shoebox with water in a bowl and we have been* taking care of him now
That’s crazy poor fella hopefully you can nurse him back to health!
@@ChiefSweetsUniverse he has been eating live meal worms and is a lot more happy now
@@GallusGamer heyyooo love to hear it
i just got a softshell turtle and this is my first time having a turtle i just find it on a river side and a ant was biting it so i kept it
Poor little guy. They live in rivers so it’s always good to try and replicate that as much as possible in a tank
How is that turtle doing now?
@@dtw1622 was given to hoa, my mother brought the turtle to them
I could be wrong. But doest there need to be a shallow area where he can be in sand and stikl stick his head up for air when resting? I just got a baby softshell and didnt know if that was important of not or if driftwood would satisfy that need
I would definitely let him have a shallow area you can make one out of a small container and put it on top of rocks and he could swim into it. It won’t harm him if you have a nice driftwood and no shallow area as well they are excellent swimmers. I was using the fake plants and the drift wood as sort of a place where he can sit perched on and be resting while still in water and can reach his head up for air. However what you see in this video is how I still have mine setup and he is doing great tripled in size and very active.
I had the same thing happen to me... I didn't even know these cops are turtles exist because you're so good at hiding but we found one that had just hatched maybe a week before we found it. and I was so worried because I couldn't get him to eat and I just knew he wasn't going to make it.
however, we have had him for close to three months now!❤❤
the only thing years at the moment I don't have the money to get him a filter, I hate lamp in a bunch of other stuff so I have him in a pretty big container, with some big rocks and sticks that he can hid under, and I put him outside in the morning time and bring him in during the night. I also clean out his tank about once a week because I don't have a filter or anyting so I completely take out everything I hand wash his tank and then I'll just fill it back up. the only thing I'm worried about is it is now winter time and I'm worried how I'm going to keep him warm.... any suggestions
Awesome video!! Jw how often do you change the water in the big tank, also I heard they musk does it stink up the whole room?
He’s in a super huge tank now if you get a large enough filter you only have to water change once a month. They don’t musk that I know of
Fill that area that the filter clears out with river rocks so the stuff the filter don’t clean will get caught under the rocks
Also my baby Softshell eats bloodworms like crazy
I love the idea about the river rocks cause then it won’t have a giant empt spot 😂 yes they love those blood worms.
I have a question 🙋♂️ what do you do when your turtle was a hard shell then she becomes soft shell and she lost trust with me so what do i do now
Turtles are just skiddish creatures. Everyday just hold them for 15 minutes.
softshell turtels are fairly easy to keep just go outside and get some spiders/worms and he will trhive from experiance
Oh my gosh, I want it
He’s a cutie
@@ChiefSweetsUniverse He totally is! How's he doin?
@@WannabeGay he’s doing very good. He’s tripled in size since this video growing very fast.
@@ChiefSweetsUniverse Awesome!
yo cuss
how big do soft shells get? i heard the males are smaller
Yes males are definitely smaller. Females get pretty huge up to 20 inches.
Believe me when I say softshell turtle are one of the toughest MF's! They can live through anything, probably the best pets
I love soft shells
Can they live underwater for a long period of time or do I need to put a mount they can hop on to?
hey chiefsweetsuniverse can you tell me how to feed a baby chinese softhell turtle i have one im trying to feed him fish
The babies sometimes will need it really tiny so you can cut it up into small pieces. I feed bloodworms cause it’s super easy and tiny and babies eat it really easy
Hi ... i have a turtle which i think is a spiny softshell. I cant tell if its male of female. Always thought its female. How can i send you pics or videos for guidance. Im planning for a new tank and this info would help alot
Hello you can contact me on Instagram
Howany time do you feed a day / night
Once a day
What do India Soft turtle eat could you please provide me the link so that I can buy food for them 😢
😢
Have you considered growing mussels in his tank? Softshell turtles eat mussels while the mussels would help filter/keep the water clean. Idk what other turtles you have, but you may be able to feed some mussels to them if they start reproducing to quickly
I did not thank you for the tip!
A mason jar? That's the best you could do?
Kinda cruel, actually.
But thanks for caring for him regardless.
Was the transport from my friend’s place cause that’s all he had and I started setting up the tank. Wasn’t in it for long just had him in it for the water while I sat his tank up.
Have have 8 hatching
That’s awesome hope they are all happy and healthy
i only have fruits and veggies atm. will it survive?
You can try local Walmarts they sell aquatic turtle food by the fish stuff
How early can you put him in the water
Once they start running away you can throw em in lol
I was wondering if I could get some help I just got one from the lake probably 2-3 weeks or less keeping him with my Mississippi map turtle it has rocks and a uvb bulb I think he was attacked he has a cut on his back
bruh
bro we need to play COD lol
New cod game coming soon too!
