Hi! I am new to the forum and still learning how to navigate it. I have an eastern box turtle my son rescued a few years ago. Shes a tripod and was the size of a bottle cap when he found her on a bridge. I am using the coconut substrate and wandered how often I should change it. Also I have been feeding her the canned box food from petco mixed with fresh veggies and some fish pate style cat food. I have tried freeze dried mealworms, fresh earth worms, meal worms and the typical box mix food. She isnt fond of it and the main reason she wasnt thriving for months. I recently read somewhere that we shouldn't supplement with canned dog or pet food. If that's true, any ideas of what other protein sources she may like?
