I went to a small herp show this past weekend and past up a good buy on a baby redfooted tort. About $20-25 cheaper than seen on Kingsnake.com, and no shipping. It was the vendors last one. It was very small, definitely hatchling sized. However, instead of the usual darkish shell with lighter centers, the entire shell appeared to be a lighter brownish color. Is this normal coloration? The head and legs had the orange/red spotting and in general the little guy looked OK, albeit a bit cool. Could it have been a yellowfoot mistakenly sold as a redfoot??
