Like I said before, being a naughty kid we would find one and he wouldn't stick his head out so we'd get a match and get close to his rear end just so he could start feeling the heat. Guess what, they always stuck their head out and started crawling. :) I should have had my butt kicked for doing that and my mom would have if she had known about it. :)Nealhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05153009268038849033noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8651794525042598507.post-8535895828948082172008-09-28T05:49:00.000-04:002008-09-28T05:49:00.000-04:00Hi!!I haven't seen a box turtle for years.

Earlier this summer my girls and I saw one in the woods behind our house-and it looked like someone had painted a face on its shell.
