I have a reverse trio of littoralis that I have put together over the past 2 years, one of them is a blond. Shell is a very light brown color while other two are normal looking texans. I am not interested in selling him but might consider a breeding loan. He has been actively courting my female but she is still too small ( -6". There is a guy named Troy from LA that I got my female from, hes a good guy and knows his terrapins. Dont buy any wild caught! They raped the marshes back east for these guys last year and many dozens of them were sent out here to languish and die in small kiddie pools in the sun at a place in San Diego Cnty. BAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
