W20c #4 This is an adorable Baby Red Eared Slider Turtle in an antique Victorian Style display. These guys are cute as can be! He is surrounded by moss, wood, preserved fern and flowers, 3 real Honey bees and a real bee hive! He is busy checking out the hive and I just hope he retreats in his shell if they come after him! He is climbing a piece of drift wood to get to them and they might not take kindly to that! The display is approx. 3 1/2" x 2 1/2" (90mm x 50mm dome) and is a glass dome on a wood base. The dome will keep your display clean and safe for years to come!
