zADOPTED - EASTERN BOX TURTLE

Was very overweight and had a lot of inflammation when it first came to us. Was so fat she/he couldn't even close her/his shell. (we don't sex rescues) Was not being fed the correct diet and was only getting hamburger and strawberries. Now eats any bug or worm you put in front of it. Not thrilled with greens. Occasional fruit is ok.

Still has some inflammation around eyes--that is going down with her loosing weight and getting a more proper diet. Great box turtle type personality-not shy.

Will need a good UVB bulb and supplements on the bugs and worms he eats.
