Hi, I am new to this group. Anyway, my question is, I have two box turtles, one I have had four about six months, the other two days. Do box turtles have to be soaked? If so, how about in the winter? I am still working on improving their pen. I plan on putting plexiglass sides on it to improve humidity and temp. I live in Youngstown, Ohio and my house is a little on the cool side in the winter. These are both rescued turtles. One is a wild one from Louisianna and the other is tamed. The one that was wild will only eat worms and the new one was fed dried dog food (witch will be changed as soon as I can get her to eat something else). She is scared of the worms! I tried some romain lettuce but she scooted away from it to, like she was scared. Right now the wild one is dug into the substrate but comes out occasionally . The new one is all over the cage.
Thanks
Thanks
