three toed

So within the last few years my neighborhood and general region in the north Houston area has undergone quite a bit of development. Recently we have been running into the issue of turtles and tortoises becoming displaced. Normally when a red ear slider or another aquatic turtle is found it just...

I've got a female three toed last November, about 4-5 inches. I'm wondering if it's possible that she will lay down eggs this year and how can I tell? Thanks.

Hi there! So I've had my three toed box turtle for around 8 years now. Someone gave her to me when I was like 10 and I had no idea how to actually care for her and it's kinda sad. But surprisingly she's still healthy, and I'm doing my best to better her life. I don't yet have my own job and...

NOTE: With temperatures being high in most places I recommend that the box be held for pickup at your nearest FedEx Ship Center. NOTE: Absolutely no shipping to any state where this species is restricted, don't ask. Species: A true North American gem, the three toed box turtles are a great...

Hey everyone, we've had our three toed, Clem, for almost two months now. I've been worried about her recently because she literally stays buried under her substrate all day (and I think night too). At first I thought she might just be nervous in her new habitat, but its been almost two months...

Is it normal for my three toed to eat so little? I don’t know her exact age, but we suspect she’s under a year (maybe 3 inches from the top of her shell to the bottom). I give her a heaping tablespoon of food every second day (50% protein, 50% veg). I have to dig her up normally, and I put her...

Hello Tortoise and Turtle lovers, My husband and I have always wanted to keep a turtle and we finally had the chance to get one. We have done a lot of research but still appreciate advice from more experienced box turtle parents! A little bit about our new baby: Her name is Clementine (due to...

I noticed my three toed box turtle had a green spot behind her right eye a couple days ago and its still here. Is it an infection or could it be grass stains?? Anybody know anything about this???

It has three toes on the back so I dont know if shes an eastern or three toed box turtle. I found her in a holler in kentucky in October.

i am needing to rehome 3 adult three toed box turtles. They have been captive their entire lives ages range from 13 to 33. Two of them were rescues and came to me with severe MBD. They required beak reshaping procedures and still require regular filing and toenail trims. Two males and a...

Hi everybody. So glad I found this forum. Thankyou for having me. I grew up in beautiful Long island, New York. Back when only twenty years ago the eastern box turtles were seemingly plentiful and you could encounter them all the time. Back then I was really into nature and animals, and I took...

I have 3 adult three-toedbox turtles for sale. They were adults when I got them about 8 years ago. One female, two male I think. Would like to get rid of them soon. Message me if interested. Will do $250 for all 3. Must pick them up.

Hi guys it’s been a good minute since I’ve posted on here and a lot has happened. Don’t worry this is not some sort of bizarre blog entry! But I did want to let you know that I just recently adopted/rescued if you want to call it, three 25 year old box turtles. These guys are Eastern box...
