I have had the Three Toed Box Turtle hatchlings for about a month maybe longer. I believe they hatched in October. I have them in a glass aquarium with a couple inches of substate. I can't remember what it is called. I bought it at the pet store. It is a growned up moss I think. Then I have a long stringy moss on top. I have a couple plants in there also. They have a shallow water dish, but I don't think they can get in yet. I have a red light above the enclosure for heat, but it is not on all the time. I put them in a plastic container with water once or twice a day that is when they eat. It is amazing to see these tiny little guys eat a worm.
So here are my questions.
#1 Is it okay that they only will eat the worms? I offer other stuff everyday, but they only eat the worms.
#2 They eat about 3 worms each a day. Is that too much?
#3 I read that I should mist with warm water. Is this true. Should I refill the bottle everytime I mist. This is what I have been doing.
Any advice is welcome
