I'm hoping any turtle people can help me out here. We've had 2 box turtles for about 8 or 9 years now. No one is interested in caring for them anymore and someone with a russian turtle wants them. Are they compatable? I'd like for them to go to a nice home.

I've never had either but I probably wouldn't do it. Box turtles are much smaller than the Russian tortoises and might get hurt.
