Wow! I have never seen or heard that.. Very interesting. Definitely means I have more YP than I thought I did.
Thank you

RES, YP, GS, FHM (no longer), HBG (going away), SMB, and HSB (only one seen in 5 yrs) Restocked HSB (2020) Have seen one of these.
I think that's about all I should put in my little pond.

Only 1/3 of my YP morts ended up floating - the rest were never seen per Cody.

I’ve seen zero floaters. Only two painted turtles are regularly hanging out. I’m guessing I’m not losing any, or just a few. We’ve caught a lot over the years, but nowhere near the original stocking numbers. I was thinking of adding some, now I’ll wait.
Thx TJ
