Hi All,
Meet Willow and Lucky, our ornate box turtles. We just got them over the spring. They live in outside in our yard here in Brooklyn NY in a 4'x4' enclosure. Inside it, I dug a hole about 18" square and a little over 2 ft deep and filled that with about 50/50 sand and dirt. The rest of the enclosure has more dense soil with clay. I'm just starting my research and need to figure out pretty quickly how to prep these ladies for a successful brumation. Is there a definitive source of info / guide someone can recommend? Any advice is welcome.
Thank you!
