TOOTER
Tooter came to live with our family in April, 2007. She belonged to my cousin who actually found her in a friends yard! Normally, we'd leave wild critters well enough alone but considering that this is a residential area, the possibility that Tooter would've become road kill was really high. Tooter is a Three Toed Box Turtle and we don't know how old she is. After owning Tooter for 8 years, we found out that she was a female when she laid eggs in June 2015! Up until then, we assumed Tooter was a boy. She lives a very nice and spoiled life. When she's not having run of the house, she stays in a 20 gallon long terrarium. He has UV lighting, which is important for reptiles, and he eats a diet of veggies, fruits, earthworms and crickets. His all time favorite food are strawberries.
