Box Turtle #126 was very brightly colored for a female. However, other female characteristics prevail - the plastron was completely flat, & the cloaca on the tail was forward under the carapace.

This is Box Turtle #122. First caught on 11/04/11. She had eye infections in both eyes at that time. I treated her for 5 days until her eyes were clear. I am happy to see she is doing well.

If I am looking at the reconstruction correctly, I believe marginals #10 & #1 are marked. I will have to get back & take another look at the remains to see if any more marginals are marked.
