Hello folks! I just recently had this little cutie come in to my life; this is the real Sanchez, a Florida Box Turtle. She's about 6 months old and lives in a 20gal long tank. I put some wood on 3 of the 4 walls of her cage and use a mix of coconut fiber, sphagnum moss, and cypress bark for substrate. She's also got a hide hut, water bowl, flat basking rock, some palm plants and a deer antler.
I had a eastern box turtle when I was a kid, but my parents left him outside one night while I was away at summer camp and a predator got to him. For the past few years I've been taking care of box turtles at the nature centers I've been working at and decided it was time for me to care for another box turtle at home. I'm excited to bond this little critter over the next many years!
