I remember fifty years ago when everyone was buying baby turtles with painted shells. Then came the Salmonella scare and the warnings that the paint could deform the shells.

Now you never see them anymore.
Guess I will have to hatch some “Sea Monkeys!” if it is not “reisist”.

I remember those, back in the 1960’s. You could also buy colored Easter chicks and ducklings at the same stores. I think Woolworths sold them.
