I hadn't trimmed nails until one day I looked at Shell E our first box turtle and realized she wasn't walking on her feet. She seemed to walk just fine, wasn't getting nails caught but she was walking on too much nail. She'd been indoors for 2 years by that time without a rough surface to walk on because she was recovering from a dog chewing.

When they walk on their feet, I don't trim nails, when they begin to walk on nails.. I'll do it then.
