I was taken from the wild in 1997 and this negatively affected my beak and nails. The good news is that I have a great appetite and CoRHS will help me regain my health. My next home must icnlude an outside pen so my nails and beak will keep in shape!

Please read about box turtle care.

Box turtle requirements: a secure outdoor pen, minimum 6’ x 6’, and hibernation during winter. We do not adopt box turtles to live in small aquaria.
