Physical Description. The eastern box turtle is small (4.5 to 6 inches shell width, up to eight inch shell length), land turtle with a high, dome-like upper shell (carapace). Younger box turtles can be distinguished by their flatter carapaces.
How much space does a Eastern box turtle need to survive? I have a wild eastern box turtle my cousins found in Georgia and they gave it to me. (i live in Florida) and it is about 13 to 16 years old and i am making a wooden turtle pen â¦ that's going to go in my back screened porch. Its about 6 feet in length and 3 feet 41 inches width. Right now i am keeping him in a 99 court storage box and he seems to like that to, even though such little space is not enough.
