Hi Terryo

If I can figure out how to post some pics I will---I believe I got two of the four high color babies from Chris in October as well. If it was the batch were he had four of them in the palm of his hand that's the ones--anyway I have been keeping all the records we all seem to keep and both of the ones I have are doing great although one has really taken off (looks very similiar to yours) and the other one is lagging a little behind size and I guess in color(but each one is different so that's tough to say).They have both been raised thus far in the exact same conditions.I really dig seeing the colors come together as well...Anyway I was going to ask Chris for the pics of parents but looks like you already have-I would be interested 2...Finally I will work on the pictures and post my numbers as I am interested in seeing how they all turn out as well- I wonder where the fourth one is?

I just went back into the for sale ads...there were seven high color EBT not four so maybe I am wrong on batches. I am quite sure I have two of the seven though. On his ad Terryo there are the pictures of the two different mothers of the seven little ones. I am sorry but I don't know how to get them here...

Can you copy and past the page they are on? Was it on FaunaClassifieds? I wish I could see that ad. I should have gotten two of them. I've never seen hatchlings that colorful.

Great looking Boxies, I've been wanting some Boxies, but I'm waiting for the local ones at the rescue to come out of hibernation, figure I'll start by helping some homeless ones since I live in their native terrain.

I really think we all need some more detailed pics and info pertaining to those awesome terrariums, I could look at pics of those all day.

If I lived a little closer to Houston, I would rescue a few box turtles myself.

I had one that was almost all black, and he's almost 5 now...I think. This is him this Summer. I thought he was going to have some red in him, but he still doesn't have much color. He's turning into a pretty agressive male too.

Terry, how is Chewie shaping up? The full sibling that I kept is still very drab.

Chewy has lost those big Betty Davis eyes, but they are still beautiful. She has beautiful patterns on her shell, and a really sweet personality. Eats anything you give her...a bit aggressive when the food comes. Almost certain she is a female. This is her this Summer in August
This picture is February in TortoiseFriends calendar.
