Hello Everyone-looking for advice per usual
The Texas Reptile Show will be here in two weeks. According to their vendor list, they will have captive born Redfoot babies, which I am very interested in. Currently I have my two year old Boxie Mildred, and it took me months of research to make sure I was caring for her correctly-and I will NOT take on another if I feel I wont be able to provide great care ahead of time. My question-how different is the care of RF from Box turtles? I know they will have to be housed seprately. Mildred lives inside half the year in her 5 foot guinea pig cage with her powersun lamp, hides, bed a beast and her large water bowl (she fancies herself quite the swimmer). She eats worms, fruit, and even likes veggies-how much of a difference will a RF baby be? Thank you in advance for reading my long rambling post!!!!
