Well, we finally gave into letting the kids have a pet. Loren found Roxanne in our yard and we felt we needed to save her. The kids were overjoyed. I had a box turtle when I was a kid and her name was Roxanne. I have talked about her and so the kids wanted this one to be Roxanne 11. I researched box turtles on the net and they are actually quite involved, not like you normally think. Our first temporary dwelling for her was a box which she escaped from quite easily and would hide under Mishonne's bed. We have upgraded to a huge rubber made box. We have to feed her a balanced diet of fruit, vegies, and protein. the kids have fun digging for worms to feed her. She may not be cuddly but she is cute! This is Roxanne escaping her box.
