The USA is blessed with some of the most diverse species, in the World. Certainly for me, the Box turtles (Terrepene spp) are amongst the best and most characterful.
I keep and have bred in the past a few of the species here in the UK.
Currently I have; Trio of Three toed Box (Terrepene triunguis)
Pair of Coahuila Box Turtles (Terrepene coahuila)
Two female Gulf Coast Box Turtles (Terrepene major)
When I have worked out how to get pic's into Photo bucket, I will post some.

What a wonderful collection of photos, Dan. The torts and turts you keep are so diverse, any idea how many you have all together? You should write a book!
