So he is still doing ok. But not eating. I have offered him meal worms as well as small earthworms. Its been about 2 days since he was woke from brumation. I’ve read in a few places that it can be up to 2 weeks before they start eating again after coming out of brumation... I am just not sure if...

Thank you for the link! I did watch that video last night. And I took the guys advice. Currently he is sitting in A container which is inside of an incubator maintaining his temperature around 82° with a humidity in the mid 80s. I also put about a quarter inch of water in the bottom of his...

I assume he hatched sometime over the summer… He’s quite tiny. The way the driveway is, there’s no yardwork in the area… It’s a very long driveway that winds through the Woods and is slightly elevated from surrounding area… I think the most likely case is that some critter disturbed where he was...

I sure hope so! I love turtles. Trying to figure out how long it takes for them to start eating once they wake up from brumation.

But it was getting dark and he was just in the middle of the driveway. The plan is to keep him inside until spring when he can be...

thats what I was figuring... Probably got dug up by some critter. very strange... Luckily I have a spare snake enclosure. Since putting him in warm water he seems to be waking up a bit. I will get him set up in the snake enclosure tomorrow and offer him some food and just keep him warm and...

Thank you for the speedy reply. I will check out the thread. I did a search but couldn't find anything. Thank you for the link!

Hi everyone! So my mother found a baby Eastern Box Turtle in the middle of her driveway in December!!! She brought him to me so now its really too late to just leave him where he was. It has been mostly in the 40s F at best during the day. He is alive but very cold and slow to move if at all...
