and conservation book noted.turtles that laid their eggs higher up on the red clay dirt in opposed to females that laid the eggs closer to the swamp(black dirt)had the hatchlings of a reddish color hatch out(like accomplices Big Red)while the others hatched out dark. it did say they were more prone to fire ant attacks though. i wonder if eggs laid in yellowish sand bank bayous throw off light shelled sand colored hatchlings? anyway its a good book full of information.
