Yvonne G said:It looks like a three-toed box turtle (Terrapene carolina triunguis). He/she also looks like he's in need of a bit more calcium in his diet. See the way the front toe nails curl all around in different directions? One of the first signs of MBD (metabolic bone disease). I'll bet the tail is just a little bitty stump too...another sign.

Yes, I will in a little while here, Thanks for all your help!yagyujubei said:I think it might be an eastern, but I need better pictures. Can you wet the shell and take a couple outside in the sun?
