I had a amazing year, crazy to be exact. I produced and got some of the coolest turtles of my life. Here is a couple pics of my favorite animals of the year. Happy New Years to everyone, this forum is a lot of fun. See you all next year!

Nice collection. I am obsessed with soft shells...And those are amazing. What is the reddish/crimson colored one? Some sort of morph? Its absolutely stunning...

Are any of these turtles for sale?

Your stuff is truely remarkable.. You need an assistant, or maybe a bodyguard? I'd die to protect your turtles if it came down to it, haha...

Your collections of albino turtles are truly fascinating. Please keep the pictures coming in 2013 :D

That is Cycloderma aubryi and isn't a morph.

Ah. I have never seen a hatchling, they are so much more colorful and beautiful....You just sparked a flame of interest in me in aubry's :).

Where did you find one available? I've never seen them for sale. Are you attempting to breed them? Or are you already breeding them?

I wish I had some land in Florida, or another "Warm" place. It would be pretty tough to keep these big fellas otherwise.

I can't wait til you breed Cycloderma Gerard. Those will be some amazing hatchling photos.

I think the adults very cool, too. The hatchlings are from a gravid imported female. I got 5 of them and unfortunately, there aren't anymore. Hopefully in a few years, I'll have some of my own hatching out. However, I don't think I would sell any of them for a long time. I am also waiting on my group of Cycloderma frenatum to get here from Mozambique, then I will have all but Elegans and I can try to finish off my Lissemys groups.
