hello everyone, I should start out with saying most of my experience with turtles is very limited. Anyway, I work at a pet store and at work last week someone brought in this really rough looking box turtle. He was a principal at one of the local schools and one of his teachers retired and left the class pet box turtle. He didn’t know what to do with it do he brought it and the enclosure to the pet store. According to him this turtle had been kept in the classroom without lighting, humidity and only eating lettuce. It had been this way for 40 years! I have it now currently I have it in a setup with proper lighting and high enough humidity. I was wondering if any of you know what species this is and any age guesses? Also how do I go about trimming it’s beak?
