I agree with the first being a three-toed and the last being a male eastern, but that middle one is confusing. I would have to say it's also an eastern, and a male at that. His color isn't necessarily drab for a male, he's just lacking much darker patterning. He also appears to have red eyes and never have I heard of a female box turtle having red eyes. It could be a trick of the light though. Turtle two also appears to have a concave plastron, another male trait. It allows the males to better mount the females during mating. A zoo that deals with these species might know better, or if you could get some more detailed imaged possibly. I guess it could depend on the zoo though too. I would never trust my local zoo back home for anything like that, but there are others out there that would actually know what they're doing.
