I live on the finger lakes, so we are in pike country here.

The muskies get huge in the lakes around me.

Tank is a puppy dog.. He eats from their hands and plays in the back yard.

Re: snappers n more snappers

Thanks Wayne for posting that photo of my boy.
Tank(Chelydra serpentina) is an amazing turtle. Breaks all the snapping turtle rules.
Free-ranges my home but doesn't venture too far from the living room.
Tank is the most social and docile turtle I have ever had.
Sleeps with the kids and really seems to enjoy the company of us all.
I must say he is partial to spending time with me and will search the living room if I'm down in the snake room.
Once I come up he comes over and sits by me or goes to sleep along me.
He was silver dollar size when he was given to me and now he's 10.25 lbs. He's been part of the family for 3 years.
He is also the hit at any of the Herp. meeting I speak at.
I save Tank for last as he steals the show.
He'll be 20 lbs by Christmas 1012.
Love this turtle.
