I came across a pair of adult Yellow foots (I had no trouble identifying them at all even though I am very new to torts), and I was told that they were breeding and that they had a number of babies and that one was there. I then saw the baby and it had a very light yellow head, orange to more reddish leg scales (IMO it was the exact same color as the scales that I have seen on northern RF's, I have only seen 7 in person). The carapace was very dark and had defined patterns in the scutes (once again just like a RF). The person told me that she had no other torts, am I crazy in thinking that a runaway female Northern RF came into her yard and laid eggs? Or is my inexperience shining through? The 2 year old or so baby looked NOTHING like these http://market.kingsnake.com/detail.php?cat=50&de=643087 or http://market.kingsnake.com/detail.php?cat=50&de=679515
The head was lighter yellow and the leg scales weren't quite as red as this specimen http://market.kingsnake.com/detail.php?cat=50&de=692726
So am I crazy or what?
