Thank you for the idea! We take roger out for about an hour everyday in our front yard and let him walk around in the grass and he absolutely loves it! we are going to modify his habitat very soon but we have already changed his eating habits and he loves it!
Hello everyone, I have an 8 year old box turtle named Roger, we got him just a few months ago and I was wondering what is the best feeding options for him, and how often do we have to feed him, we feed him just about everyday, we don't really know what to feed him though, any answers would be...
I have a seven year old box turtle and I was wondering it it was safe to lather argan oil on my turtle, I don't know if it could harm him but it makes him smell really good and it hydrates his skin. thoughts?
