That lighter colored one reminds me of my old loggerhead musk. I know it's not, but the color and "look" remind me of her.

Yeah I kind of see what you mean. The lighter one is my male and he was found in Pennsylvania. The darker female is from Florida. The more northern populations of stinkpots are usually a lighter color then the southern population which one would think would be reversed.
 
mine look just like that just with more brighter yellow on there head and my dark one has no specks on its head.
 
Yeah I'd expect the reverse. It will be interesting to see if your future babies are mixed light and dark or if they're more intergrade. I've never come across wild stinkpots, rarely an eastern mud. I'd love to get a pair of loggerheads but they're not the easiest musk to come by, I see them for sale occasionally but they're a bit pricey.
