Unfortunately, yes, the entire yard floods. I live on a barrier island and flooding is a major problem. I would love to leave them in a pen so they could dig into the earth, but I worry that they could drown while hibernating (it floods here a lot in September and October with the increased winds). The lawnmower turtle is completely healed, although I am not sure if he is heavy enough to hibernate. When he was found, he was incredibly thin. He has proven to be a great eater, although in the past few days (since the temp has dropped) he hasnt been eating as much. I will post photos in the next fews days and perhaps you could give me your opinion  May I ask when your Boxies start hibernating and when they come out? Also, in what part of NJ do you live? Any advice you could give me would be great! Thanks in advance!
