Hi everyone, I had been planning on getting an Eastern Box turtle with the idea that I would eventually have a group of them and house them outdoors in the summer. However while I was planning out the indoor enclosure for an EBT, I've been made aware of a Chinese box turtle on that needs a home. The turtle is being housed really poorly and I'd love to give it a good home. However, I'd still like to get a group of EBTs sometime in the future.
From the research I've done Chinese box turtles seem to be the more terrestrial of the semi-aquatic Asian species. As long as I provide a larger area of shallow water for the CBT, the EBT would be okay, right? Its not like they won't make use of the watering area, right?
Of course I could keep them in separate enclosures, but I'd rather be able to give them all plenty of room rather than dividing the space up. Any insights you guys have would be much appreciated.
