Turtle Fury

Those are the names my younger brother gave to these 3 turtles, eh...just short of one can become one set of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Lol. Those names are in Hakka, the first one means Mr. Biggie, then Mr. Small, and Mr. Black Angry. Why? Cause Mr. Biggie is slightly larger than the other two, and Mr. Black Angry, well, is darker in colour and also more aggresive. 

Every night my brother will feed them turtle sticks and they always welcome it by trying to reach up as high as possible although we always pour the sticks around them. Once I tried to feed the sticks to one of them near their mouth and it snapped the whole spoon so I never do it again. 

It is quite fun looking at them swim around in the 'tank' that my brother made for them and sometimes they will accidentally topple over when we feed them as they reach up and up and lost their balance. Although clumsy, they always manage to get back on their feet.

We don't have a lot of space around so we kept it in our big shower/toilet, so anyone coming to my house just watch out when you use toilet!!!
