I have an outdoor enclosure (it was a garden) that has been converted to a Box Turtle year round home. (in central Michigan) It is about 20' by 20' and it has turned into a jungle of 4 ft. tall weeds. I would like to put in a pond..Im thinking about 3 ft by 8 ft, and about 2 or 3 ft deep at deepest point. I was planning on some type of liner along the bottom. can the pond by relied on as the drinking source for the turtle(s) or would it need some type of filtering /cleaning system ? There's probably more to this whole process than I thought, so just trying to learn from all the experiences of others. I just have seen how dirty the plastic saucer I'm currently using for dipping and drinking gets.
