Wow this is really an old thread. I am curious about KY law for turtles and tortoises. As usual, much of the language gets confusing. So the Eastern box turtle is native and you are allowed to take up to 5 from the wild. What about if you bought one from out of state? Is that legal? If you bought an eastern from out of state, would that count as part of your 5? Is it legal to purchase other species of box turtles that are not native? Any stipulations on captive breeding?

I’m just wanting to hear from some who know the rules and the practical application of such.

Thank you
