Can you put a box turtle in the same cage as a water turtle as long as you have both a pond and a area they can go under groud with shade and sun?

It's not recommended to place a Box turtle and a water turtle in the same enclosure, even if there are both aquatic and terrestrial areas. Box turtles have different habitat needs and behaviors compared to water turtles, which can lead to stress and potential aggression. Additionally, they have different dietary requirements and may carry diseases that could harm each other. It's best to house them separately to ensure their health and well-being.
