Tsellers
I ordered 3 blue northern Diamondback Terrapins from him about 3 weeks ago. The turtles came via USPS, luckily I am friends with the mail lady and let her know they were coming. they did not require a signature to be dropped off and could have just been put in my mailbox... unfortunately the smallest of the 3 did not seem quite "right" when we got it. (very slow to move and inactive despite the heat light) he did not make it the entire day. I sent Dave an email and he replied the next day stating that another would be sent, and it was. however it was not a blue which was rather disappointing; being as blues are more expensive.

also, 2 of the 3 have had issues with their eyes. (swollen eyes) due to poor nutrition. I resolved the problem by adding more vitamin A to their diet. this was not a serious issue for me but for someone who is new to caring for aquatic turtles this can be a life threatening issue.
