Even with the rust colored belly?

New Jersey here he is again after a little brushing

Here is the plastron

This turtle came from a gross pond that is being drained. He doesn't fit the profile for a map turtle but I don't have any other idea.

Yeah, I wouldn't be able to keep him here. I would take him to Cedar run Wildlife rescue. What causes this?

I found this turtle while herping. I released it but now I'm thinking I should have taken it to wildlife vet.v

How do I create a nesting spot? The egg has turned out to be fertile. :) she laid 2 more, all surface. She laid them a week apart? She has a cuttlebone but doesn't eat it :/

It was right on too of the dirt but I'm incubating it :)

So my boxie laid an egg, she hasn't seen a male since at least last spring if she ever saw one. Could it still be fertile? I know they can store sperm pretty long but they can also lay eggs without breeding jut like chickens right?

I am headed to the Hamburg PA reptile expo with my male Russian tort who is looking for a new home. Anyone interested that is also going to the expo?

My box turtle is showing signs of wanting to hibernate. He is refusing to eat and spending all his time hiding under the leaves but he doesn't try to bury himself or dig into the ground at all. shouldn't he be going deeper than just walking under the leaves? Background- I found him at a busy...

My Russian has an outdoor enclosure. It's in the mid 50's as a low overnight with days high at 80-85. I thought I should bring him in at night as it might be too cold, but when I went out to get him he is completely dug under his log. I would have to dig out the log to get him. So how low can he...

He has a pot that is on its side but he usually burrows next to it instead of in it. It's 1140pm here, suppose to rain for a while. Guess I should go dig him up.[hr] Saved him, he wasn't even buried. He was on the rocks under my roof overhang so he was in the driest spot, but now he is nice and...

My Russian tort is in his outdoor enclosure and it has started to storm. Lots of rain. It's 72 going to 70. Do I need to bring him in? It means going out in the rain and digging him up but I will if I need to. Thanks

Beautiful!!

I am so sorry for your loss. Might I ask what type of dog? That would help decide if the wire is thick enough. It does look good though and I don't think the average smaller dog could get in.

Looks good :)

JeffbensOn- I can not get this tortoise to hang that tail out, but it is large and gave me the impression it was a male but I am def. no expert. If I ever manage a tail shot I'll definitely post it.

Is that guess from the rings?

Little background : I purchased this russian from petsmart Aug. 2011. I have not been keeping him in he best conditions due to misinformation from another site. I have upgraded his living quarters but want to see how his overall health appears at this time. How old he might be, are petsmart's...
