Mickey is a 23 year old male red-eared slider turtle currently for adoption from the Mid-Atlantic Turtle & Tortoise Society. He could still have another 10-20 years left in him! He's used to living in a 55 gallon tank, but really should have at least a 75 gallon or larger tank. He eats Reptomin and Mazuri turtle pellets as well as greens and lettuces, and enjoys a treat of plain cooked chicken. Visit http://www.petfinder.com/shelters/matts.html if you'd like to adopt Mickey or another turtle. He's currently in foster care in the Baltimore area.

  • Oddly, it looks to me like the males that keep thier younger colors the most have the longest nails, but maybe I just haven't seen enough really old sliders - not that Mickey is really old, because he's not. MATTS might have another one that's FIFTY years old coming up for adoption soon.

  • @ruckaisawesome That's because he's an older male slider. The males tend to "go melanistic" as they age. It has something to do with the testosterone, but it's basically like going gray for people, except the males have it more than the females as they age.

  • doesnt really look like a red eared slider lol
