Hello all! I've recently acquired two Florida boxies and was hoping for some helpful advice on husbandry for these guys. I was told they were between 9 to 12 months old, and was told **roughly** they are a male and female (but it can be hard to tell, due to their small size).
I have owned Russians and RES in the past but want to make sure I am doing everything right for these guys.
I've been using http://www.austinsturtlepage.com/Care/cs-flboxie.htm as a care sheet, but there are still a few questions that I have regarding diet.
We bought the half and half mix (field greens and spinach mix, I believe). We were given a calcium supplement to sprinkle over their protein source once a week and were told to feed some fruits maybe twice a week (strawberry, apple, papaya).
Well... basically... just assume I don't know anything about them and grace me with your knowledge
