July 16th, 2019 : Albino Wood Turtles

[xoxoxoBruce]

Albino Wood Turtles are one of the rarest Turtle Morphs in the world. They are also very easy turtles to keep in captivity, making them a great species for displays. There are three different species of Albino Wood Turtles being kept in captivity. Albinoturtles.com is working with two of them, and we are only a couple years away from producing the first captive produced Albino Wood Turtles.

This bothers me. Albinos whether 2 legged, 4 legged, or no legged, have a tough row to hoe.
Life is extra difficult for those Mother Nature handicapped with Albinism. These people are
deliberately breeding them, over a dozen different kinds. Why, for money of course.
I didn’t see any prices but would guess they’re being sold as rare and exotic pets.
Turtles live a long time so when Jody and Buffy go off to college Mom gets to care for them...
or turn them loose. Bad juju.

Oh, and they ship fedex overnight, that's enough to make me walk away, but that's because
fedex has screwed me repeatedly. Wednesday they were screwing someone else by leaving
their box on my porch. I let them know and they came for it Saturday afternoon.

If your turtle doesn't arrive alive, they'll replace it free. I should hope so.
But you have to pay shipping... What?
