Re: What can I keep in the paludarium with my turtles?
How about a couple stinkpots (Sternotherus odoratus)? They're small and probably wouldn't give your turtles any trouble.
If you want, you could try to throw in some anoles or tree frogs, but you'd have the constant chance of them being eaten. They will make their way down to the water's edge at some point, and then there's nothing stopping the turtles from snatching them. Especially during feeding time. I used to have a red-eared in an outdoor enclosure, and every time I'd get crickets for a couple other pets, I'd throw the leftovers to the turtle. Over time, the anoles figured it out and would storm the enclosure once I dumped the crickets, but occasionally my turtle would grab a lizard and eat it. Just something to think about.
