The Eastern box turtle is usally about 4-6 inches in length. Eastern box turtles have a high domed carapace (shell) that is usually a darker brown with bright yellow, orange and/or red markings. On the plastron, there may be dark areas, especially on the margins of the scutes. The skin is brown with spots or splashes of yellow or red coloration, especially in males. There are four toes on the back feet.

Which kind of Eastern turtle? Eastern box, painted, etc.
If you know the type, we can offer better advice.
While I cannot find a site that mentions the weights, but I'm guessing the ones I have had run about 1/2 lb or so.
I am curious- why?
