[@Thesisters-bv5te]

Do you have a video showing the actual build?

[@AJKAquaria]

Looks great man! Still freezing out. Can't really work on any enclosures yet. Hoping for warm weather soon...

[@OsmunReptiles]

Yeah I hear you, we are just finally starting to warm up, I have seen three of my 5 turtles come up in the last day or two actually.

[@AJKAquaria]

Osmun Reptiles My 3 toeds are still on the fridge. Still getting snow here.

[@ratmannlibertyhound6755]

Nice set up. You should put some river rock in the stream for biological filtration. Just a thought very cool set up . You did a good job be proud.

[@OsmunReptiles]

RatMan N LibertyHound thanks! That’s a great idea. Would river rock slide or would it be heavy enough to stay put? I am going to look into this. Thanks

[@ratmannlibertyhound6755]

Osmun Reptiles it should stay put .you can get it from Home Depot as river rock or river pebbles fairly good size. It will also add to the water sound and add oxigen to the pond to combat bad bacteria and elgy growth.

[@OsmunReptiles]

RatMan N LibertyHound awesome thanks for the information

[@debhazelton440]

Can a box turtle and wood turtle share an enclosure? I tried googling and couldn’t find an answer!

[@KristenCrosby-p5c]

Do they escape by digging out?

[@OsmunReptiles]

They try but all my retaining walls go 6-8 inches into the ground, and that has prevented anybody from being able to dig out

[@oren8699]

Do they too perfectly fine in the rain?

[@OsmunReptiles]

Oren Gee yeah they love the rain.

[@EastCoastFinz06]

Is it legal to own eastern box turtles in nj that you know of

[@michaelosmun7971]

I do not know NJ law but check out the states DNR though.

[@johnallen281]

Do you sell the box turtles

[@OsmunReptiles]

Hello, not yet, my state has a lot of laws and rules when it comes to selling turtles. I am licensed with my DNR but still learning everything before I start selling babies. I will probably be able to start selling in a few seasons, though, so keep watching and stay in touch.

[@johnallen281]

Osmun Reptiles ok I will definitely be watching your videos I use to breed box turtles and wanted to get back in it I just breed ball pythons now and a few leopard geckos

[@OsmunReptiles]

cool, yeah I breed ball pythons and a few other species as well.
