Posted: Sat Oct 08, 2005 2:07 pmprobably not. Boxies are I think the most common.
Posted: Sat Oct 08, 2005 7:28 pmusually, oranate or eastern box turtles are the cheapest overall. IIf, perhaps, you get one from a pet store, it will approximately cost about $300+
which is a bit costly.
Breeders (the good ones) sell boxies for about $50-200 which is a better deal. Getting one from a pet store, it can be caught from the wild carrying diseases and parasites.
