4yo boy now has 2 pet turtles. Bro-in-law brought one by last week, then my brother though he should have a 2nd one. <br /><br />I took some plexi glass and made them a small cage, put in some bark and though great, they have a place to live.<br /><br />Then I started reasearching turtles, and they way they are, they will die....<br /><br />well, I kinda like the little kritters, so I'm going to build a terrarium. <br /><br />Anyone else out there have any tips on what to add?<br /><br />From what I've read, features it needs to have:<br />UVB light about 12-14 hours a day to simulate day/night<br />high himidity, getting a heat rock 3-4" of dirt/bark and a shallow pool
