Steve,

The Miss map I had, had a build up of (calcium, plaque?) just INSIDE of the beak on the mandible, so that it pressed on the roof of the mouth, and she couldn't close her mouth completely. There was a mound on each side of the jaw, just inside the mouth. I look for this now whenever I get in terrapins, to help determine if it was a CB/LTC or recent wild-caught.
