Where should I buy a Box Turtle

BEAM0902 Apr 03, 2004 10:07 AM

Hi,
I've been researching box turtles for a long time and already have great experience with others and just wanted to know if anyone could refer me to a good captive breeder of Eastern box turtles from whom I could buy sexed juveniles. I've just read so much conflicting information about places where I have thought about buying them and I'm not sure who to trust, and I hope you all can help.
Thanks

Why not adopt from a rescue organization? Check with your local herp society about local rescue founadations.
In the meantime, check out this link, which explains Federal 4 inch rules.

In which state are you located? Try visiting www.petfinder.com or www.anapsid.org to find a herp society or rescue near you.
