I’ve owned three toed box turtles for over 40yrs. I currently have five of them, all of which feed, brumate, and roam freely in my secure backyard. Two months ago, I obtained a desert/ornate box turtle. I’m suspicious that she was wild caught. Here’s why… For these past two months, the turtle roams my backyard; constantly pacing my block walls. It’s as if she’s obsessed with escaping. She absolutely refuses to eat anything. At sunrise each day, I begin offering a wide array of food. She sniffs briefly, and then scurries away. She rejects all insects, worms, berries, greens, shrimp and hard boiled egg. This goes on for hours. I’m being persistent, but now I’m exhausted and desperate. If this continues, my new box turtle will surely perish. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Box turtles are persistent! Maybe she is eating when you are not looking? Does she get in the water? And yes, sadly sometimes turtles in the pet trade are wild-caught versus domestically bred. Brainstorming - My other thought is depending on where you are maybe she is looking for a place to brumate? Have you tried feeding her in an enclosure by herself with the temperature and humidity closely regulated? Are you giving live worms and insects? My rescue turtles are usually suckers for strawberries. I know it can be very frustrating when they don't eat. Keep trying. ♥🐢

I really liked this video. I always wanted to build my own house, but I'm older now and love my 1955 cape cod. The double dig sounds interesting. I do have clay soil, but at least with loads of worms. I get tired of hearing about no till; I've been trying, but failed at it more than once because I was missing some information each time. We did get a hand tiller, but I won't be using it everywhere. I'm sure we didn't use it perfectly, but it has been easier to plant. This is only one the front yard and it's flowers (I'm collecting heirloom peony varieties primarily, and have a bunch of irises, too. I'm beginning to practice veggies this spring in a metal raised bed in the backyard. I must not be a natural gardener (I'm really not- haha- I'm a creator), because I'm scared of getting my seeds started! 😂😂 I have watched a million videos, have my recommended raised bed to construct, seed starter cells, grow lights.... my problem is I want to test out one or two (at the most) of different veggies just to see how they do. I don't want to start the whole seed packet and have all of these "standbys " to replace failures. I will surely kill the standbys as I have no greenhouse and don't want pots of various sizes filling every sunny nook and cranny. I think I will start 5 seeds of each type, keep 2 (have one standby) and give the others away; using the same seed packet for more than one year. What do you think? Does anyone else have this problem? I don't see it mentioned anywhere... Anyway, talk about getting long... You are correct about zoning restrictions. For a couple years, I was considering chickens but I recently learned I need to have 2 acres and I have 1.79 so this is off of the table for me. I will definitely be putting fruit trees in; already have a few in back. Most of my backyard is at the clearing and planning stage, except for my veggie practice. I'll be checking your other videos out. Thanks!

It sounds like you are creating a beautiful space! I love peonies and wish they lasted longer. You might look for seed swaps in your area - sometimes libraries, community gardens or extension offices have them. That way you don't feel overwhelmed with seeds. I do think others with a small garden have the same issue. Don't overthink it. Every gardener has plants that are fabulous and plants that don't produce as well. I had wonderful eggplant this year but my peppers were blah. Thanks for watching. Im wishing you a fabulous 2025 garden!

If you pull the correct method is to grasp at the bottom push back slightly and twist while pulling to get a clean separation. Otherwise, your pulling into the base. I've been cutting for over 50 years and have not had any issues. But do what you are comfortable with. Thanks for watching!

Great content and information!! Climate anxiety drove me to pursue a career change to environmental science! I get very frustrated with city or government policies that make it harder for cities to be built sustainably. It feels like there is nothing I can do because I'm not, nor do I want to be, a politician. I do want to find a career that uses data to help convince cities to invest in sustainable solutions! I appreciate the reminder to make time for self care because it really does help!

Peanuts are bad for squirrels
@foxruneec
@foxruneec Ай бұрын
Peanuts in moderation are fine. They don't have a high nutritional value compared to native nuts and at high levels are a trypsin inhibitor. However, as a wildlife rehabilitator, I can tell you the real nutritional issue with squirrels is calcium. This activity would be considered supplemental and more importantly this is intended as a family activity to make connections with nature. Thanks for watching!

This is very helpful. I found a bat sleeping under the overhang of my gazebo earlier this month. I bought a bat house at a craft fair and need to put it out, but I'm glad I saw this first because I was going to put it on one of my pine trees. I'll have to check the dimensions too. I have a brick cape cod and no barn, so mounting it to the house won't work, especially since the front of the house faces south and the only western exposure available is on the garage is where the powerlines attach. I guess I'll have to go with the pole. Should I have several bat houses on poles? I do have parts of trees that are dead, so maybe the bats like them too. There are local ponds, so water shouldn't be an issue. I can definitely plant some moonflowers. My mom used to grow them.

Im glad it was helpful! Bats are so important. For a pole mount you could put two bat houses back to back on either side of the pole. They like to be in a group. Use a metal pole guard to prevent raccoons or other predators from climbing up it.

Good video, with the exception of using zone 6 (for temperature) to correlate soil type (geology). One has nothing to do with the other.
@foxruneec
@foxruneec 2 ай бұрын
Thanks for another great comment! I disagree because climate zones are correlated and are a factor in developing soil formation. We can look at broad rock types such as limestone, shale, and silt and see they form under different climates, pressure, air, and water pressures. Limestone rock has weathering, erosion, and interaction with plants, all affected by temperature. I do feel it's an error and one I am very guilty of, that we compartmentalize our gardens instead of viewing them as a unit of many factors.

This age-old concept is great, but an important detail was omitted. When wood breaks down, it sucks the nitrogen out of the surrounding area to promote its decomposition process. Over the years, nitrogen needs to be added to the pile, or the plants will be weak and starving. The other detail missed is that these piles become fungally dominated with an extensive network that supports perennials, mainly trees and shrubs. There is not much of a real biological benefit to annual crops in this system.
@foxruneec
@foxruneec 2 ай бұрын
Yes, that is why I mentioned adding compost, grass clippings ect several times but I see your point looking beyond several years and the benefits for perennials. I have grown potatoes, tomatoes, and summer squash using this system over several years however one of my friends did this with an orchard in a more permaculture method. Thanks for watching and sharing your experiences!
