What turtle species can coexist with common musk turtles?
24 Dec 2024 at 5:05pm
Mud and Musk turtles can be pretty nasty to each other, and to other turtles. A map turtle might work, but as mentioned above, musks and muds can be tail biters. If you are keeping two or more musk turtles together or if you decide to add in a map turtle or something similar, I would recommend a very large enclosure.

The Water Method for Baby Box Turtles | Tortoise Forum
16 Dec 2024 at 4:21am
I am very curious about this, and just wanted some opinions from you all who have experience raising baby box turtles. I have some baby box turtles due to hatch soon, and regarding their enclosure, I have seen the Garden State Tortoise video about the water method and that essentially being the method that works the best.

When I was younger the family dog used to get fleas from time to time and infest the house, when this happened my mother used to put large saucers of soapy water on the floor in each room and hang a light directly above it fairly close to the floor, the fleas jump up at the light and land in the water, the soap prevents them from swimming and they drown.

Keeping more than one tortoise can work just fine. The problem is keeping them in PAIRS. When there are just two of them, its a problem. This would also apply to box turtles. Groups of juveniles and babies are usually fine. As adults, you can keep groups in a large, well planted enclosure with one male and 3-4 females.

While turtles and tortoises do not need to breathe very often, they do still require oxygen. We had found Popeye unresponsive last month after an apparent tortoise brawl. After doing CPR for 20 min?

Box turtles don't like bright sun and tend to hide where they will be camoflouged and it isnt quite so bright. I actually came across an adult today weed wacking. He was very fast and active.

Step 4: Air! Place the turtle in a dry container for at least 2 hours. Some turtles are not overly stressed if left in the dry container overnight (in complete darkness), returning it to the aquarium for at least a portion of the day. Air is the enemy of shell rot pathogens, so it is important to keep the animal dry for a lengthy period of time.

Smaller turtles that are growing, love fish and are predators. They are fast and seek the protein. Turtles: Our slider will never leave, we have no gates around the pond - but he also has no other turtles for competition/bullying. So I can only speak to my experience. This is not always the case, but our guy is older and set in his ways.
