Manouria are one species that can tolerate cooler temperatures, but I don't allow my baby enclosures to get that cool. For the Manouria babies I keep the whole container 80-85F degrees, all the time, day and night. I also feed them like box turtles, that is, animal protein about three or four times a week, fruit three or four times a week. They are kept in a closed chamber in swamp-like conditions. I mean WET, not moist. I'm not sure that pine bark is the best substrate for them. I like to use fir bark (orchid bark), and when that's not available, I buy cypress mulch.

I am looking to purchase a Manouria hatchling/juvenile. Do you have any recommendations? I live in south Florida. Thanks.
