Alfred the Turtle

Ok, I think that crazyness is contagious. I have a crazy hamster, a cat who's a bit off, and now, my turtle. Alfred is a painted turtle, and usually eats just about everything he can put in his mouth. Sometime last week, I noticed a little beetly thing in his tank. I figured it got in there somehow accidently, and that wasn't a problem. Well... here's the thing... the beetle is still there! It usually stays on his rock, sometimes accidently falls in the water... and Alfred never eats him. Alfred has a pet. Maybe I should give the beetle a name. LOL There are also a lot of bloodworms in the tank, that Alfred has yet to eat. I don't know if he just too slow, or too lazy to catch them. Strange strange turtle. I mean, he looks for them, acts like he is eating them, but, being a turtle, he is always hungry. Anyway, if he wants to have a pet beetle, he can, I don't mind, so long as the beetle stays in the tank.
