i don't think that is much to worry about with having a pet turtle. afterall, people have been keeping turtles as pets for many years. also, if i remember correctly the turtle is going to be spending most of it's time in the aquarium, so it's not like your son is going to be playing around with it all day as if it were dog. ↑ |
point taken sweetpea123
thanks, i will think about that next time i go look at them ↑ |
Your kids will be fine as long as you wash your hand after each time you handle them and change the water. turtles are fun and easy to maintain pets as long as they have good homes. ↑ |
