So about 2 years ago I had taken a box turtle off of my co-workers sister. She was in an accident a little while back which made her bad with short term memory. She wouldn't always remember to feed the turtle, therefore she gave her to me.
She has a lot of personality and is doing great so far. I got her to eat and she hibernated just fine. Even started to kick her fear of swimming and she now bathes in the jacuzzi bowl.
My only concern is that she hasn't really grown any since i got her. Not sure if they take a while before they grow or if not having so many nutrients from her not feeding the turtle had messed her up at all.
Any input appreciated, Thanks!
