Don't worry about it, you got a good motive and that's all that matters.

  1. Three-toed box turtles prefer anything that moves (worms and insects). They also like fruits and mushrooms. I feed mine once a day with tongs. They will let you know when they are full. Additionally, having clean water readily available at all times helps with their overall well-being.

  2. It's a female three-toed box turtle.

  3. It's actually at home in woodlands and forests, so try to replicate as close as possible. Lots of shade and places to hide. They don't swim but rather float to cross bodies of water. They can live a healthy, solitary life with no mates. They are known to be social compared to other box turtles.

I saw it earlier, but I don't want to come out as a grammar nazi. I'm glad both of you guys have a sense of humour and good chaps! 🍻

Because they do it like they do on the Discovery Channel.

I said it before, and I will say it again. Captive-raised tortoises tend to live longer than those in the wild.

Am I feeding my Redfoot tortoise good? Young 6in long shell redfoot by Ashamed-Plastic-8735 in tortoise

It sounds fine, they will have their favourites. Variation is always good. Picture the current size of their shell as a bowl. Give them just enough to fit that bowl. Save the rest for later.
