Hi! What is my best bet for ID'ing this turtle? I am thinking you probably have a page of photos?

Thanks! LQ

Try this link and click on the various box turtle links there for lots of photos. One for 3-toes has several pix that give good examples of the different looks of them.

You'll see a few weirdy deformed turtles at that link too.

Thanks Anita, looks like she is a three toed. Of course it tood me a bit to get her out and comfortable during a picture taking session to count her rear toes.

Thanks so much for the link! A very interesting family of turtles! She is doing well, I am just impatient with the slowness of healing. I know it will take time.

Thanks again....

all(or atleast almost all) T.C. subspecies can have 3 toes, or 4 toes, going by just the amount of toes they have isn't a reliable way to identify which subspecies you have.
