I tried to get a couple of close ups but they were blurry. I'm just a crappy photographer :lol:

He is smaller than I thought :) He looks so tiny in that pot. Adorable :)

I hear people had problems with photobucket the last few days but mine works fine

I see the pics just fine. He's so darn tiny. I can't believe mine use to be that small.

Wow that's awesome, he's so small! How hard is it to take care of and eastern boxie? Like do you know of a good care sheet? And I guess another factor would be how much did you have to spend on his setup? I'm kinda intrested in one, but I have to do some research first :-)

At first I thought Dog was a three-toed boxie, guess they all look alike when young

Eastern boxies are very hardy animals and the most popular box turtles kept as pets.
Here is one for ya

Brian, I don't know where you're located but here, just the turtle was $344 after tax.

I picked up the 46 gal rubbermaid tub at walmart for $15, the plant pot at walmart for $2, dishes at walmart too for $1 each. I already had the clamp lamp and uva/uvb bulb but they were $35 & $80 when I bought them.

I should add that I've been researching care and other info on him for almost a year already just to make sure I'd have everything right.

Wow! The turtle itself was $344?!?! That's crazy, and I can get a clamp/lamp for about $50 at the pet store, but that might be it if the turt itself is $344 lol

yes there are very expensive, I saw some sulcata at a pet store near by there were 200 a piece. They also had some boxies but I didn't look to see what kind. The sulcata were so cute they were the size of nickles!

Speaking of sulcatas, Mups left a few days ago to Arizona to my grammas. Got a call that night to say she was doing fine and eating a stalk of lettuce :D

I'll have to tell my son. He fell in love with that little guy when he saw the picture you posted here while back. I was searching the forum for Mups' picture so often for Benji that I finally just saved it to the computer for him to pull up and look at. It was the pic of Mups eating a piece of lettuce. Every now and then he will still ask me if we can get a turtle like Mups. :)
