Being bitten by turtles already immune to me.. har har har~! Kiki n Riri always wanted to bite my fingers when feeding time.. *wink*

Only kroten will bit my finger ....but the problem is Kroten always bite Kame's hand....she is the little one but kame is a bit afraid of her.

Oh! I'm having dat problem too... I saw Kiki (a bit smaller but have quite long nails than Riri) always trying to chase Riri and bite her hand.. So far never got any injury or fighting.. Kiki is hyperactive.. so excited when see me near to the tank. Riri just act cool..

MALAYAN BOX TURTLE

"HIGHLY aquatic species and should be set up with the same type of accommodations one provides other aquatic species."

"Ambos are most accurately termed a “semi-aquatic” species. In the wild, they tend to spend most of their time in the water but are known to move about and eat on land as well. Hatchlings are almost totally aquatic, leaving the water primarily to bask."

There are a lots lots type of box turtle out there with different care sheet. I have done my research in handling this malayan box turtle .
