Either a Cumberland or a RES/Cumberland Hybrid.

The spots on the Plastroon and the Yellow marking on the neck going all the way to the eye.


Well that's embarrassing :oops: ...

I always assumed the red ear made her a RES. Through the years the red ear faded...

She's probably a Hybrid. I had a Cumberland for awhile. They practically the same exact species, just a little rarer in the pet trade than RES.
