We found it in a parking lot on a wet, misty, humid night and its shell is round, its got 11 box shaped things on its tummy, its eyes are orange, it sort of has webbed feet but it has claws. The turtles shell is black, yellow ish and brown. Its head is a molted type. Idk what to feed it. Or what environment it should be in

Ocimom could be right about this one. Box turtles have a high, domed shell, as adults and a hinge in the lower shell that allows them to close up tight as protection from predators. However, boxies don't have webbed feet. I would need a picture to ID it. Without an ID, any directions you get could kill the turtle.
Sounds like an Eastern Box Turtle to me. Does he look like this?

If its a land turtle, they need just a small pan of water to drink, food should be mainly meat (worms, etc) and only a little vegetables. I had box turtles as a teenager and we would feed them mainly hamburger, worms, slugs, and tomatoes. I kept them outside in a huge brick garden.
