I read the comments from others and looked at the pictures carefully. I think it is a Three-toed. I have seen many Three-toeds and this one looks just like them. Three-toeds often have four toes. I have one with four toes.
Is the breeder an expert? Sometimes a relativley new owner will think the hatchlings from a cluth must be from an ornate and three-toed, if that is what he has in his collection. But female box turtles can store sperm for several years, up to 4, so the eggs may not have been fertilized from the available male. ----- Tess
