Come to the March meeting of "Just me and my Tortoise", and I can hopefully answer this and other questions.

http://www.azgfd.gov/w_c/boxturtlemanagement.shtml They do quite like water and can swim. Mine have a big plant tray bath they use most days. They're quite happy to poke their heads under the water and have a root around. When I bathe my small ornates they do the same and they have a swimming action similar to more aquatic turtles like spotted turtles. Last edited by Kirkie; 27-01-2011 at 11:01 PM. |
