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
