Hi,
Just created this account in hope to get some good information on how to better care for my box turtle.
We got this turtle in April from the animal shelter. We believe it is a 3 toed box turtle.
Within the last week he or she has become less active. Appears to be more skittish. Eating much less. Spending most of his time in his little brick house.
We are wondering if this is normal, and if not what to do.
Turtle lives in Southern California a block from the coast. Daytime highs have been in the 70's lately with lows in the high 50's.
The picture of spike in the water is from a couple months ago, and the other photo is of his yard.
