These are by far, my three best females. They've been breeding a lot lately, so maybe soon...Only the one on the left laid last year, so I'm expecting big things this year.

Can't get enough of those. Especially the most colorful one! How much does she weigh anyway?

It's funny how the two on the right make the left one look plain and ugly, even though she's actually a highly patterned very nice female, and even has the best head color of the three.

Someday, when genetic testing kits are simple and cheap, you should test the two on the right. They really do look like they could be sisters. The head pattern is the same, the shape and size is the same, and the pattern is very similar.

I agree completely. I just checked the stats on the three. Top Left 5 1/4 scl -590g. top right 5 3/4 scl- 600g. bottom 5 3/4scl 594g. They seem a bit light to me, but have only been eating for a few weeks.The bottom one came out of hibernation with an upper respiratory infection, and then developed bilateral ear infections. She is fine now, and all are eating agressively. They are with my two best males for the season. I am really looking forward to see what they produce. I also wrote the guy again with the female I sent you pics of, but I think he's ignoring me.

i personally think the one on the left is a perfect "typical" eastern typical only in the type of markings she has, the other two with such high color yellow markings are gorgeous and i think your on to somthing with them being sisters,

This 6 month old juvenile (my best 2011) is out of the "plain" one. So imagine what the other two can produce.

Haha um I actually like the "plain" one best :shy: maybe I just have an uncultured eye but I like the contrast of her markings best.

If you come across any of those ugly high colored ones, we'll have to do a trade!

Kind of looks like a star tortoise. Very nice![hr]

They are a lot bigger than I thought! Wow, those may have been sold from SC, but I doubt they originated from there. They look too nice!

In the picture, they seem to be saying "We want to go to California!"
