Identification of of the breeds of babies running around our yard

I know one is a painted, then eastern box, but what's the other? I think blanding but a neighbor says spotted. The one in question are the last few pics

Yep those look like blandings. Quite the variety of species in your backyard. Obviously your in the eastern region of the United States?

The third ones are blanding's turtles. They are very box turtle like, kind of in between tortoise and turtles...

They are so cute! I would love to have one someday
Wow, you really do have quite the variety! Are these all wild?

Southwest Michigan, Yes all wild. We live across from a lake bit have several swampy areas as well, plus we have 60 acres of land. All the turtles go back and lay nests where we ride our dirt bikes. They lay them in the sand. April and may I take 3-5 painted hatchlungs a day to the lake. I've seen adults blandings before but first baby I came across and he happened to be by my front door when carrying groceries in one day, that one was released. Usually have dozens of snapper hatchlings but didn't see any this year. The eastern box hatchlings we saw the mommas laying nests and protected them with a wire cage. 120 days later a nest of 7 hatched and the other nest of 8. So 15 total

You share have variety, the only wild turtle I've seen here besides red eared sliders (and shocker, snapping turtles ) was ONCE a painted turtle.
Must be a very nice place for turtles there It's so nice to hear all these little babies have a a guardian who helps them out a bit!
