New gulfie

[Torch]

I only recently discovered gulf coast boxies and through this forum have gotten really interested in the species. I decided if an opportunity to own one arose, I would get one.

Yesterday my hatchling gulfie arrived. He's from a pure group of tan phase gulf coasts owned by another member. This little guy is gorgeous. I cannot wait to see how he matures.

He's in quarantine now but will eventually join Lucy in her new vivarium.

Such a cutie!

I'm curious to see how he'll turn out as well! Was he temperature sexed or anything? I'd love to see pics of the adults in the group he's from... *ahem mystery member* haha

Sure is a cute little thing. Couple week old? Or couple months old? I have no knowledge of this species at all.

I'm not sure if he was temperature sexed or not. I've just been calling it a he lol.

Here are some pictures I was provided with of the group he's from.

Awesome! I love box turtles. I can't believe I don't have any . They are wild here I see them all the time.
