Also I don't know if any of you live in SC but I use to and on our farm there were 100s! The box turtles are not at all hurting from over collecting in SC at all.

My thought is that if you want to keep all you can of the WC box turtles to breed than why not just let a serten amount of your hatchlings go from each clutch you hatch. I know some people would love to go into a big debate about this to and try to prove why this would be a bad thing to do, too. But I am sorry to say I am not going to do that with you.
