    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Hi All -

I have two log term captive male box turtles that were rescues from a construction site. They have always been good with each other but starting last year they have started attacking each other very aggressively to the point they damaged each others carapace near their heads.

Im sure this is a breeding response but Im always amazed at videos of people keeping large colonies of box turtles outside and with no apparent issues. Who here has had success and who has seen the issues I'm seeing?

These turtles now aggressively attack each other within seconds of being introduced. It's crazy.

Thanks
