does anybody have a female eastern boxie i can adopt or buy i am breeding my turtles and i found out the other turtle was a boy.

i would give her a nice spacious home to live in.

heres my male she would mate with, they would make beautiful babies! i'de give anything for a female eastern, i want lil hacthlings. so if anyone found a female or can't take care of her i'll be more than happy to take her off of your hands

Hi,

If your turtle is only 1 or 2 years old, it's hard to say whether he is a he or a she. Also, it will be 3 or 4 years before your turtle is mature enough to breed. 5" is usually the size range of a mature adult.

If I had to guess, I'd lean toward female based on the soft coloration and shell shape.

Cheers.

I agree your box turtle looks like a female.
