Thank you for your advise odyssey. I also live in N.Y and was not planning on hibernating the turtle. I was reading another message from the forums That discribed my turtles actions quite well. The turtle is female and she was being very active even late at night, along with not eating. The other article mentioned that she might be wanting to lay eggs. So I built a small box{about 3' square} that she can get into and filled it with sand. I just finished it today and she has investigated a little. She was eating night crawlers very well up til about a week ago. We have her lighting system on an automatic timer set for 14 hours of light per day.She also has a turtle heating pad which she seems to enjoy. If you can give me anymore advise on woody it would be greatly appreciated. I also have a box turtle that I have had for over 15 yrs.
