codeylol asked:

I keep my 2 3-toed box turtles in a 5×2.5 foot indoor enclosure, and in the summer they live in an outdoor pen. I think the measurements are 6×7 feet for that one. I keep the temps at around 85 degrese on one side, and on the other side temps stay at around 65-70. They are feed a veried diet, but the items that stay the same ate earthworms, dandelion greens, and romaine letuse. Its hard to give a whole list of what I feed them; I keep it varied like how it would be in the wild. Please, only serious awnsers only:)
