    Does Anyone Else Other Than Me Like Turtles?

    I have a pet box turtle right now. Anyone else have a pet turtle?

    I like turtles, but I don't have a turtle. I don't have the resources currently to care for one. I'll have to live vicariously through you, so be sure to post a lot about him/her.

    I sure will post about her a lot. She only has 3 and 1/2 legs so she's a bit limited on movement, but she doesn't act like it, she is a bit people shy though.

    I like box turtles , Sulcata tortoises, Adalbra tortoises, mostly all the large ones as well. My wife keeps asking for one and I guess we’ll be getting one soon.
    Stay in peace and not pieces.

    We've had four box turtles (T. c. triunguis/T. triunguis) for about 25 years. Not sure how long you've had yours, or how much you know about them, but they're not a good "beginner" reptile at all. Having a qualified exotics vet on speed dial, and a credit card with some wiggle room, is a very good idea. Again, maybe you've got all these bases covered, and if so no offense intended.

    Eventually I want a tortoise.
    My partner loves water turtles, but we both agree that a land critter would be better for us. So he's been eyeing a few Russians or redfoots
