Tips on substrate. I use a terracotta tile under water dish. It helps to keep it level and the bottom of dish cleaner. I use eco earth and leaves for substrate. Sphagnum moss rinsed with twigs removed and spread out on newspaper to partly dry can be used to up the humidity. Critters in the substrate especially seems to enjoy eating up the sphagnum moss so I don't use it very often. Although, some turtlers use sand I do not think it should be used as I believe it can be irritating to the eyes. Cages should never be used for a box turtle as the humidity can not be kept up. The sides of Sparky's terrarium is plexiglass. Plexiglass can be cut with a circular saw with a special plexiglass blade. Box turtles must have hides so they feel safe. Live plants and habba hut logs gives them the hides they need. Spider Plants and Wandering Jew plants are good non toxic plants. Rocks placed around the water dish must have enough space so your turtle will not get toes caught in between the rocks and the water dish or in between the rocks.
Box turtles are at extreme risk outside in uncovered pens and with no hides.
