We had a bunch for pets when I was a kid.. my dad had a pen full until he passed away .. I pulled the sides off the pen but the turtles still come to their food bowl .. my mom feeds them fruit and vegetables..
I saw a girl throw one in a pond one time because she thought she was saving it.. poor turtle probably drowned..

Dale Moser, I think that's an alligator turtle and they are illegal to possess in Texas. I think I just read in a recent P&W magazine article that box turtles are becoming endangered due to the number of poachers and black market trade. I have the article around here somewhere.Last edited by Pistol; 03-25-2020, 03:13 PM.

So I’ve been told. When I get home, my son and I will drive him to a little creek bottom near the house. I think he was probably hatched around my neighbors tank, and he was wandering around very near the street.

A #$_&che bag in a white fx2 Ford swung over and killed him in front of my daughter before I could get to him.
She wanted me to chase him down and whoop on him.
