Hey everyone. My house has recently become home to an African Sideneck turtle (Crush), 2 baby Sulcatas (Tomato and Potato), and 2 days ago my boyfriend shows up with 2 tiny box turtles (Mumbo and Jumbo). My mind is spinning from all the reading I’ve been doing trying to learn how to properly care for all these babies! I’m glad I’ve found this group where I can hopefully get the info I’ll need to give them all the best care possible. Thanks in advance for all the help!!! I’m gonna need it! Posting pics of all my new “sweetlings” as my daughter calls them!

Hello and welcome! Geez I can't imagine doing the learning and set-up for all those torts at the same time. It can be overwhelming getting it all right for just one. Well this is a great place for info and help. Take pics of your enclosures and people can tell ya if any adjustments need to be made. It takes some tweaking to get it right but we can make it easier by passing on what we know. Happy turting and torting!

Welcome, the African side neck is very interesting looking.
You will find everything here to help you along. Not sure about the box turtles but the sullies will need to be raised separately. I am sure that's the last thing you want to hear.
