This past week we added an adult male Florida box turtle to our family! We already have an adult female (Beans) and her two babies, who we were just blessed with on August 5 (Popeye and Pinto Bean).
Bento is our new male, and he's great! He likes to dig and climb. He's a rescue from Miami, someone had him and needed to rehome. And he has settled in nicely and is eating, swimming, digging holes. He has even taken bites from his cuttle bone!
Here's a photo of him and Beans (Beans on the left, Bento on the right).
And I have a post about him up on my blog, too. I'd love for you all to follow my blog! I try and post lots of photos of all my turtles, plus some fun stories, and always some helpful and educational information about Florida boxies. My post about Bento also has information about the adults' pen also! Please check it out, and feel free to subscribe (there's place on the right hand side to enter your email to subscribe)
