She luvs being in her tub while eating her bananas, but when she wants out she wants out!
 
good flicks thats funny id imagine you only use the leash while you clean the enclosure but its pretty funny i must say...good looking turts...
 
i would be a box turtle owner if i didnt rehome that chinese box turtle...i still am really sad about doing that i really liked her.
 
I think it's a western box turtle. Similar pattern to Floridas, but Floridas are larger and have a much more highly-domed shell.

I only use the leash when he wants to go for a walk with the dog and can or when we are in the rv and he wants outside for a while. He doesnt like the puppy pen but does really well with the leash, sooooooooooooo...

Your turtle Sunny looks like Florida Box Turtle. How are you keeping your turtles, do you have them outdoors?

I have Joey with me in northern Idaho-we have a small outside pond and he LOVES it out there (and LOVES chasing the koi around!!), but only when its nice out-other wise he is in a wood shaving bottomed hab-with a large bowl(big enough for him to float in). Sunni is with with my little sister in southern Utah, for now, and just lives in the RV-she doesn't really like going out side, its too over whelming i think. Lil' sis says that she dives into the dog water bowl as soon as she changes it and drinks her full and then gets out and is ready for her banana and canned box turtle food :)

That is what the reptile guy from here said about her, but am still not fully sure what she is.
