neat, she is beautiful. We live on 17 acres fields and woods and my husband came across a pair of boxies breeding. We have come across adults and one to two year olds on the farm but this is the first time he/we came across a breeding pair. It is so late in the season we think these eggs will...

so sorry about your loss. Something similar happened to me when I was young and had some Box turtles outside under a tree. The shade moved and they got over heated. It is hard, but like said, you have learned a valuable lesson and can go on from here.
Maggie, your new additions look like they already have personalities. I used to visit my husband's parent's lake and go out in the canoe with a net. I would catch soft shells by the dozens. One at a time I would size them and touch them and then let them go. It was fun. Have fun with your new...
he is a beauty, congratulations. I had one many years ago that liked to eat goldfish. He got so tame he would eat them right out of my fingers. Enjoy yours. thanks for sharing photos.
