1. Identify them properly- the cares for Ornates is very different than the care for Easterns.
2. Sadly, babys are not easy to care for.
3. Try the care sheets and forum at http://www.austinsturtlepage.com. The forum can put you in touch with LOTS of box turtle enthusiasts!

babies usually only eat live foods, tiny crickets, earthworms,
meal worms, wingless fruit flies, etc they seldom take any
fruits or vegetables until they are several years old you may be able to get them to eat canned dog food (chicken based)
my sister raised her baby wood turtles on canned cat food
(they look like box turtles) you can email me for more info

feed them about 4 small (pinhead) crickets each every day. you can also get pellets & lettuce as a treat.make sure they have a water bowl, heating lamp, log, & a few fake or real plants. they need a 20 gallon tank.
