Hello:
An acquaintance of mine has recently acquired two three toed box turtles. My understanding is that the enclosure came with them. They are both about 4 years old. The bigger one that you can see in the terrarium picture up close to the front seems to be fine and alert. I am concerned about the shell of the smaller one and have attached pictures. They are fed veggies, fruit, mealworms, box turtle pellets. They have a heat lamp but no UV light. She asked me to post this so that you can comment and give her advice. She wants to learn and take care of them as best as possible.
Thank you
