Can box turtles eat Burbank Spineless Cactus? Do I need to dice it up? Also, how do you regulate humidity for indoor box turtles? Of course temperature can easily be adjusted? Thanks for your response. Howard
Hi Howard! Welcome to the forum! Opuntia ficus-indica 'Burbank Spineless' cactus should be fine to feed box turtles, but to be on the safe side, remove any traces of spines (or the places where they would normally grow). Then cut it into reasonably small pieces for the box turtle. There are other forum members with much more experience on feeding cactus to box turtles and tortoises, so hopefully they can weigh in on this one.Can box turtles eat Burbank Spineless Cactus?

How to regulate humidity in indoor enclosures depends largely on how those enclosures are set up...especially what substrate is being used. What is your set-up like?Also, how do you regulate humidity for indoor box turtles? Of course temperature can easily be adjusted?
