The point of my previous post was that Salmonella can be prevented by proper hygene (ie hand washing) in the case of handling turtles but I guess that went over your head. :notsure: I must say that it is funny how you attempted a couple posts back to agree to disagree and want to stop hijacking the thread. So I take the high road and don't say a word. Now you come back clearly for the sole prupose to rehash things?!!? Come on kid! Seriously.
I think this thread has run it's course.
actually, the second post was an accident... what happened was i was writing the first post, and clicked submit, right when my phone rang, and my internet shut down and the site closed, so i answered the phone, talked awile, logged back on, and then wrote the repeat post, sorry bout that.
and Johnbob, glad to hear the turtle is doin good, what do you have for it? (tank, filter ect..ect..?)
