Identifying baby box & shell issues

[lisa127]

I'm going off Carapace and plastron markings and comparing it to the ornate/ 3 toed hybrid I have. My 3 toed/ornate juveniles I hatched last year have the same plastron markings as this one.

These are the hybrid

This is a full 3 toed.

Who knows though, we never can tell for sure about the markings because so many come out differently

My gulf coast/three toed integrade has that plastron as well.

No matter what "he" is, I love him. I just like knowing species and it's helpful so I can look up care. Those pics of hybrids are helpful, thank you! Thanks for all the replies guys

I get that but Texas doesn't have Gulf Coast from everything I've read. I'm not saying it can't be either.

Me neither. Just commenting.

I adopted out a 3 toed to lismar that has the dark markings on the plastron. Take a look. Scroll down a bit.

I got two brothers both Are hybrids. And they couldnt look more different from each other than they do

It is a three toed, I don't see it as a cross.
