I don't know much about the eating habits of yellow marginated box turtles, but you could try some fruits like strawberries, raspberries or blueberries. Maybe even some chopped up tomatoes. I know that my box turtles are really attacted to red fruits.
the tomato idea failed ill try and find some other stuff hopefully meal worms maybe...and mr v not to step on toes but i did mention...

Nice turtle! I don't really know much about them but if they are similar to sex like our native box turtles then I would say female because the plastron (lower shell) appears to be flat. But don't quote me on this. Males have a concaved plastron for balancing on the females shell during mating.
thats what i was thinking too...but the plastron is hinged and i dont know anything about hinge torts or box turts with hinges i dont know it that affects the concave idea...but it does obviously affect the shape of the plastron when the turt pulls all the way in...
