BABY TURTLE UNBOXING

- This pet store (Zoo Creatures) had a massive variety of pets to buy and a bunch of rescues and surrendered animals there as well. It basically was like a mini zoo and pet shop in one. Also I hope everyone likes the new turtles, live video soon to name them! PRE ORDER A TUBBY TOBEY PLUSHY lukesgoldies.com
hey just a word of advice, turtles eat whatever they see basically, so they might start nibbling at the sponge filter which can be bad. Hope you the best with your adorable little guys! Also zoomed has a hatchling formula that's smaller and has more protein that the baby turtles need, and the reason they go in the water to eat is because turtles need water to swallow.
Thats true
@Luke's Goldies This is important to know.
my turtle doesnt nibble at sponge filters
@@DanRemdor That's great! I said that because although everyone's experience is different, from what I've heard turtles sometimes do it, that's why he should look and see if they start doing it, because they can get hurt by it.
Yeah I was thinking the same thing. Sponge filters are a big no no with turtles. HE could put egg crate around them to protect them.
Just some tips from someone who’s had turtles for 5+ Years. 1. Sponge filters are not really going to cut it. Compared to the amount goldfish poo, 2 turtles poo is like a person has done it in your tank 🤣2. I suggest crushing or presoaking your pellets. The zoo med pellets that are that size are typically for 6-8 month olds. Make sure to not only feed pellets. Give them things like blood worms, cooked egg, shrimp and even guppies! Baby turtles eat primarily protein at this age but as they enter adulthood they mostly will eat plant matter so also introduce plants to them (mine personally love collard greens). 3. Consider getting a uvb bulb that stretches across the whole tank. They are more expensive but better for your turtles. They can get more uvb because it’s evenly spread across the tank and has the bonus of lighting up your whole tank. 4. They’re going to grow fast so tank them baby pictures now! 😆
Thank you so much for all the tips!
@@lukesgoldies id also like to add that these tanks are good for know but when they grow aquatic turtles need massive aquariums. The recommended ratio is 10 at least gallons per inch of shell diameter.

The "live goldfish iced tea" could have a new purpose...
As someone who’s owned turtles for 10 years now; I will say that they require at least 100 times the effort and time your average fish do. When feeding your turtles; or are just around them in general; interact with your hands. Play with them, move them around. Mine love coming up to play with my hands, but my friend who didn’t interact as much isn’t as loved by his turtles. Once again, interaction is key to build a strong relationship with your turtle/s.
Agreed. Keeping turtles is much more complex, and long term than fish. Keeping turtles will be a long term project, and requires a lot of dedication from its owner, and is not just a cheap piece of furniture you can shove in your house
I ate the turtles btw
Wait what!!!!!!!
WHY BRO WHYYY
You better be joking 🙃😭
ARE YOU ACTUALLY FCKIGN ME??!!?!?!?
nuh uh
Don't forget to change your uv bulb every six month or else it won't be as effective! And variety in food as well as supplement can help them grow a good shell too! Also Zoomed food seems to be the best out there just a few thing i learn by watching snake discovery.

I feel the urge to reiterate what everyone is saying: Change the UVB bulb every 6 months, provide a varied diet, and watch what you put in their tanks, because they’ll nip at everything.
A snake discovery collab would be the dream ❤❤
you should probably get another turtle dock for the other side with shading. If they want to get out of the light for a while and chill then they can do so.
Don't know if you already know realized this but what you got were a pair of northern red bellied cooters and they get larger than the average slider 😅
The reason they go in the water is because most aquatic turtles can't swallow on land the water is what pushes the food down their throat.
Also there is no way to tell the sex of a hatchling turtle like that unless the store manager incubated the eggs himself as their sex is dependant on the temperatures that the eggs were incubated at.
What really?! That's so cool about the genders 😮
Luke's "heya buddies" instantly put a smile on my face. Adorable!
Hi Luke! Please reach out to garden state tortoise for info and proper care for these lil ladies! They are a turtle rescue in NJ with a CZcams channel and all the other SM platforms! The babies def need a second area out of the light to chill! Also you may have to find smaller pellets or cut those in half or just pre soak like you mentioned. It’s good to make them work for their food so it keeps them active but you don’t want them to starve bc they can’t break them down! Best of luck with these adorable girls and I hope you are reading all the comments! There’s a lot of awesome peeps in the comments section giving you excellent advice! 🐢 ❤
right on Garden State Tortoise channel is the best place to learn about taking care of your turtles
Luke, i’m glad you enjoy Zoo Creatures like i do! The fly river turtle is so amazing.
Those turtles are so cute. I hope you love them and care for them!!
Yes let luke get a car for them 😊
@@thebendyshow4525 I love when I see Luke give car for his fish. the turtles need car too😢
That's why I liked Luke's channel. Because he car his fishes
he should name one Carlos
Hey Luke! Great job on the initial setup, just make sure to get more plants/hiding spaces down in the water so they have lots of places to forage and hide, it's good for enrichment and keeping stress levels down
That funny I literally just bought a turtle the day you posted this video 😂 there very cute btw
3:40 Ryans shop looks really cool, love the variety of creatures they house!
2 days? Well better set my alarms! I cannot wait 😝😭❤
Loool just changed it
@@lukesgoldies you ate turtles
@@lukesgoldies LUKE BRO CAN U GET SOME REAL PLANTS FOR TURTLES BECUASE FAKE PLANTS ARENT GOOD
@@JaisalLakum Sigma balls🫡
@@lukesgoldies THANKS :D lmaooooo
If they're gonna be anything like my own turtles I recommend remembering to let them roam out of the tank while they're still small so they get used to being handled. It makes sure they won't get bitey when they're older and bigger in case they need to be taken out of their tanks for anything like checking for injuries or disease. Plus, it's fun to watch them explore! By the way, they love having their shells scratched, you could hold your fingers in place and they'll scratch themselves against your nails!
I'd offer other tips like food and lighting but that's already covered by other commenters.

hey luke i have turtles too, your small turtles you probably have to feed only once a day. they need water to swallow the food. once they get to palm size you only need feed twice a week. also, you could bring the turtle out onto a bucket for feeding so that you wont dirty the tank water. the food can cause the water to be smelly. just note that the water in the bucket has to fully cover the turtles so that when they capsize they can flip themselves over. feed as much as they can eat in 5 min
how often should an adult size red ear slider be fed? (turtle pelletS)?
@@randomrazr my red ear is about 10 years old now, the shell size is about my palm size end to end. i try to feed him twice a week but really mostly once a week on sundays. and hes ok with it. still very active whenever i let him out of the tank during the day time every 3 days
@@xhxh7060 only twice a week? uh oh. mine begs for food everyday so i feed it everyday :O
Love that you've got little turtles 🥰 they are so adorable. Excited to see what you're going to name them
Hey Luke! I’m so happy to see you branching out into my realm of loves. Reptiles are so amazing to keep! I don’t keep sliders because when I was little I didn’t know about the 10 gallon per inch rule and ended up keeping one in too small a tank and the guilt is too much. I can’t wait to see these guys thrive under your care!
They need so much water sliders are so annoying due to that
Im so so so happy that you haveturtles now. the love you have for your fish is the way i felt for my family's yellow belly sliders. they are such prescious little guys and i love that you can give those 2 a good life.
They are so cute when they are that tiny. Reminds me of my Red eared slider that my wife got me as a Christmas present two years ago. He was so small and feisty. Still is, he always had a habit of throwing temper tantrums when something upset him and will swim angerly and just mess up all his decorations in a fit. Still does it, just he's now able to do that with his basking area and the drift wood we added to his newest tank. He also figured out how to adjust his basking area so the heat lamp and UV will hit him just so.
They're definitely very animated for such youngsters! Full of personality!
Babies!!! ❤❤❤
turtles are like that
Name the turtle Master Oogway ( high protein )
No bish
@@epichero7867 No Jumla
Pls
master oogway army
I found ur comment
You just made me want turtles again, i grew up with a red ear slider, i miss him so much. So much personalty sooo cute, enjoy your new buddies.
❤❤ wow video so amazing ❤❤ turlr baby so cute ❤❤ thank you so much to sharing the video
I’d name them squirt and sunshine
You should get two more turtles. Then you could have Donatello, Raphael, Michelangelo and Leonardo.
Bahahaha, I was thinking that but I have no idea if it's legal to own Alligator snapping turtles or Soft shells
@@velvetdarksoul8741 you can have both in some states with permits I believe
As the turtles are not for breeding, it would be awesome if you could collaborate with @SerpaDesign or any other aqua scape CZcamsrs for them to build you the perfect tank the turtles.
8:59
Ok, that fence isn’t stopping anything.
Aww so cute. Very vibrant patterning 😊
My turtles are not made for water but yours are so cute
Then I believe you have tortoises,
My good man.
@@absolutezerochill2700 I mean box shell turtle's are more land based I think these guys are some sort of slider
@@absolutezerochill2700 tortoises are a sub species of turtle
I WOULD ADVICE KEEPING THE TANK AS BARE AS POSSIBLE CAUSE THEY MAKE THE BIGGEST MESS POSSIBLE
5:34 That turtle has so much sass, he definitely will be a sassy boy.
I love red sliders! I usually find one randomly every year or so. If you get the a rock to hide in the love it!
Hatchling pellets would be easier for them to eat. Also feeding them in a separate bin with water in it helps reduce the food waste in the tank. Also you can’t tell the gender until they are at least 4 inches in shell length. They are so cute!!
I’m going to try my hardest to own a pet shop like that one day
Luke sliders get big. The tank is fine for now but they can get about a 12" shell.
What beautiful western painted turtles! I have one myself and 3 musk turtles!
I have a 10 year old red-eared slider. His name is Sky, I love him, he's my baby. I hope you love your sliders just as much. People don't think much of turtles, but they can be very sweet
Now luke can have big chonky goldfish and teeny tiny turtles!
I’m glad you cleared up that they were not for sale
BABIES
Your pet baby turtle🐢is so adorable🥰amazing video.
Day 33 of asking you to name a goldfish (or turtle) Phat Gus.
Master Oogway OMG
The turtles are so ADORABLE there like the size of a silver dollar ❤
They're ADORABLE! I'd watch an entire video of just the turtles 😍
Same!! I watch mine over and over because it’s peaceful!
Cool - also it makes it easier if you take them out and feed them in a smaller container. Keeps them contained and keeps the water cleaner. Good luck.
In another container with? Water right not without? If they don't have water to eat in they choke
@@Xaykt yes with some water
Remeber those things get hella big. Also remember to wash your hands after handling them. Glad to see you joining the turtle hobby.
Aww, what cute little ducks!
I used to not have a strong opinion on turtles but now I can say that I love them. They're so cute
Im sure you've done plenty of research before getting these guys, so just remember that as they get bigger they will need MUCH more room. It's kind of crazy how much room turtles need to not grow deformities, most people actually prefer to keep them in custom ponds
definitely wouldn’t recommend sponge filters as those turtles will start munching on them. A canister filter is better for turtles
Cuteness overload!! 🥹
Reptomin sells a mixed bottle of turtle feed that contains not only small pellets, but dried shrimp and krill. It would be perfect for these guys. You can also float a romaine lettuce leaf on the water, they will nibble at it, and use it for cover. Duckweed is also excellent for a variant in diet.
You may have to worry about them once they get older. Turtles do tend to fight as they get older and fight for territory. I would also say you might need to get a stronger filters (Maybe a canister one. It will really cut up) A rule in the turtle community is for how many gallons of water you have in your tank, double it.
Please name one of him MASTER OOGWAY
Edit:do a collabe with the turtle girl
Those turtles are so adorable 😍
Lol! Babies on a mission! So cute!!! ❤❤❤
Day 267 of asking Luke to name a goldfish Stuart
Hey I wanted to mention be quite careful with the black sand, I had a issue where my turtles decided to gobble up a massive amount of sand and we get impacted. I prefer large river rocks that would be impossible for any turtle to swallow
Those are some nice Sliders
Those patterns are awesome.
😂 I remember my sliders like
That’s but they are older 😂 ❤
Aww, they're so cute!! I hope they live long happy lives. That was a pretty cool pet store, they even had what looked like a kookaburra (native Aussie bird). It will be good to see these ladies in some more shorts and videos :)
I am big fan of you from india
Ooo cool
This turtles are going to get really big and need a lot more space I hope you do more intense research on them
It helps to pre soak the pellets so they are easier to eat and turtles have to eat in the water because they essentially gulp the food down. I feed my hatchlings mealworms, bloodworms, sinking pellets, vibre bites and other stuff. They eat my water hyacinth but it's too big for them to devour it and the hyacinth is growing really fast.
they are so precious omg!!!
Looks like that will be a fun couple of turtles to take care of.
Once again I will suggest getting bala sharks for your biggest center tank, I think they would be fun and beautiful.
Turtles on my ground is def an upgrade from broccoli on the carpet 💀 those turtles are too cute 🥰 do u have names for them yet?
"504th video of me requesting luke to name a chunky goldie Mr.Blaze" It must be the most firey goldfish🔥🔥
Wow they are so cute! Good luck with the turtles Luke!
Luke! You need two more! So you can name them after the Teenage mutant ninja turtles!
In 2 days bruh😂
Was a mistake Lolol
@@lukesgoldies ohh
Like to ask if we could have a livestream of the turtle tank
I love turtles. They're so cute!!
Just adorable, enjoy
I’m so glad you went to zoo creatures, it’s an amazing experience
WOOO TURTLESS The Goldfishes are gonna love em 😂❤
The shell pattern is awesome!
Those turtles are so cute.. and if they ever get too big for your indoor tanks, you have an abundance of outdoor ponds they could go live in, on your own property. You already have a load living outside so the conditions must be good for them. I wouldn’t get anything done if I had them too cuties 😊
I do agree they can live in ponds outdoors but not ones that already have wildlife because sliders are extremely invasive and take over so easily and can do alot of damage to natural wild ecosystems that have other species of turtles that are endangered. I think LUke could possibly make an aquascape pond or just buy a 300 gal stock tank from tractor supply Co once these guys get too big for the tank.
Can't wait to watch them grow out on their tank❤
They’re soooo cute! ☺️❤️
them trying to eat the big nuggets gave me flashbacks of River Tam from Firefly with the round ice treat on a stick going "My food is problematic." :D but petitioning Luke to either get smaller ones or cut them with a utility blade or something. I had a lil slider turtle growing up, it mysteriously disappeared, I suspect my grandparents got tired of it or something idk.
I got so excited when i saw the dudes NERD hat. NERD is really cool
Oh they're so CUTE 😍
Adorable!❤
So stinkin cute, I love turtles xd
"Mobils".... selectively bred red ear sliders in order to get that cool pattern!
That beta in that cup when he was packin the turtles uppppp sheesh petco gives them more room lol
Aww cute turtle
They are so cute!! Love your channel
10:36 Apologizing to pets is the foundation of a good owner
They are so cute!!!!
You should call the slow one Master Oogway and the faster one Michaelenglo
Wow the first scene was a calm snappy turtie
I have a baby turtle as well, I recommend flukeers meal mix, with crickets worms and shrimp
Nice turtles Luke!! 😊
6:14 Oh Yeah What a Cute Fluffy Dog ;)
Pip and zip would be such cute names for them!
