Some turtles and tortoises can be very territorial over everything. Box turtles tend to be less so and currently Cinnamon and Crunch share just fine as long as it's regular food. When they get worms they have to be separated.
They can be aggressive over food. Cinnamon and Crunch are fine as along as the food in question are night-crawlers. They have to be separated for those. There are a number of predators that can injure/kill them including dogs, rats, and raccoons.
Turtle soup? I somehow pictured it looking different:)
ReplyDeleteThey look happy with their breakfast. Are some turtles, like some dogs, territorial about their food or do Cinnamon and Crunch happily share?

DeleteThey're charming creatures! It's hard to imagine them fighting, even over favored foods. Are there any predators that bother them?

DeleteThey are so cute! I wonder what it would be like to have a plate of food bigger than I am that I can jump into. Hmmm...might be fun!
