Hi everyone. I have 2 box turtles that I purchased online from 2 different places and 6 months apart. The first one (Pepper) from lllreptile and the second (Pluckie) from Mynewturtle.com. I got Pepper when she was about 1 week old and Pluckie at app. 6 months, but are both 1.5 yrs old now.
In...
Okay, I uploaded these pics from my iPad to photobucket and then linked them to here. I think photobucket may have resized it so I'm not sure if the pics came out clear. Enjoy!
This is Pepper. Here are some pics from when I first got her till now :)
This one is from this morning
Here are...
Hey, i have the TNT mix from Carolinapetsupply and barely used it. It's just sitting in my shelf in a glass jar. I bought it back in september. If anyone wants it, just pay for the shipping....but if you want it in the jar I'll be like 12 bucks for shipping. If you don't mind it in those ziplock...
So i purchased a three toed boxie and was told that he/she is approximately 6 months old. I figured that would be perfect because Pepper is about 6 months old and in a short period of quarantine I can try to put them together. Well the boxie was supposed to arrive by 10:30am on Thursday but...
Pepper is about 6 months old and 44 grams. Here are some recent pics =)
Just some nectarine and spring mix (don't worry, she gets her wormies!)
Wadda ya lookin at?
Here she is when i first got her in October
I'm sorry guys, I've been searching the web and I haven't found much, maybe I've been looking in the wrong places. Are all box turtles illegal to own in NY?
She is about 6 months old, and the only part that was sticking out just a tad was her hind leg. I was so scared because I was cleaning her enclosure and the tube light fell on her. I coaxed her out with some worms just to see if she was hurt....I feel so bad. She is traumatized.
Hey guys, so I moved baby Penny to a 20 gallon long because she looked like she was out growing her old tank. So now I'm using a tube UVB bulb and still using my 50 watt heat lamp. The problem I'm having is that I don't know how to rearrange the UVB and the heat lamp so I can close off the top...
Every morning I have been soaking her and applying neosporin in a separate container. Today I looked at her tail and it looks like its getting worse. It looks like its a little swollen and I see a little red...what do you guys think is going on?

Wow....I'm feeding her a worm now, and it...
Here's the regimen until her tail gets better: soak in warm water (drink and to get all the dirt off), dab neosporin, put in separate container with wet paper towels, feed in that container (so she won't try to get out), then put her back in her enclosure. Here's some new pics...she sure has...
Hey guys, I was doing a complete clean up of Pepper's enclosure today so I put her in a separate container to soak her. When I went to put her back in her enclosure, I noticed that the middle of her tail is raw. It looks like the scale on the tail was ripped off. I noticed it today because after...
I have a baby box turtle that is about 3 months old. I was wondering if it would be okay to get her a friend, if yes, anyone have any available? Thank you!
I really need help guys. I've had my baby boxie since the beginning of October. He's been eating a variety of food like earthworms, reptomin, red leaf lettuce, berries, calcium etc. He has a heat lamp and also UVB. About 2 days ago I noticed a part of his plastron looked somewhat flaky and...
Sorry to make a thread like this, but if anyone knows what time petco is opening on black Friday please post here! I checked their website and called like 20 times but no one picks up
