What kind of box turtle?

[Bunny2746]

Isn’t he beautiful? Just a baby but he will have nothing to do with live creatures he actually runs from them. Only eats pellets sometimes scrambled eggs , red leaf lettuce and occasional cantaloupe.

Looks like maybe an eastern or gulf coast. Harder to tell when babies. Plastron pic would help.

You got yourself a darling Terrapene Carolina Major better known as Gulf Coast Box Turtle and most likely a Panhandle. You ever need to rehome him I’ve got 1st dibs

Thank you , his coloring is so much brighter than my other gulf coasts.....could it be that males are brighter like birds? Because my other two I have always referred to as boys but could be girls , they are the two that are in my profile picture.

Nope, that is not how gender is determined. you won't know gender for a few years.
