Turtle ID?

[Elohi]

A friend of mine just texted his picture to me that was in her fb feed. The turtle has since been let go because she crushed her eggs (well DUH she's in a box) but anyways, I'm personally curious what type of box turtle this might be. This is a mid Missouri turtle.

I think it's yellow spots on the head and legs. And also orange on the head.

It's a three-toed box turtle - Terrapene carolina triunguis.

Thanks y'all. I'm going to get my friend to inquire and make sure they let her go.
