Why is it that box turtles have growth rings, but they are not visible on the other turtle I have (eastern painted and red-eared slider)
I have not had box turtles long enough to see if old layers falla off, but when I got my eastern painted late last summer, he was shedding his outer shell layer. My red-eared slider has old layers, too, but they do not fall off nearly as well.
