Hi, I put my 2 baby 3-toed box turles in a glass tank inside. I have a heating pad at side of glass and a UVB light above.

However,the thing is they just bury them into the mulch.I never saw them walking around the tank. Is that normal?

One problem is when I leave earthworm or supperworm in the tank, and they don't show up.Later on, those earthworm or supperworm just walk away and hide into the mulch too.

I don' know if my turtle can find those earhworm and eat them when I am not watching or not.

One another problem is the earthworm/superworm is bringing ants into the tank, which is really scared.

Please advise.

Thanks

Tony
