Cyclonorbis senegalensis

[Gerards]

Here is something really cool and a species I really love. These guys, hopefully a pair, came from parents out of Benin and were hatched here. This is one you don't see as hatchlings, ever. The adults are very easy to get and are really cool turtles. Sorry for the bad pics, I'm still moving. Thanks!

You can't get Senegalensis out of Benin anymore.......Only Ghana......I had a group of 7 that I was looking to acquire, but that isn't going to happen anymore......

Yeah, all of the ones I use to have came from Ghana. I think I saw some from Gambia once, too. They're all the same, no differences at all, so the locality is irrelevant. So you had them or were going to get them?

They are all sitting in Benin right now. Total was 11 or 14 animals by the time everyone gave up on them.......The Airlines won't let them out for the time being......

That sucks! Im going to setup a larger group of adults here soon. We got our first clutch of lissemys eggs a couple weeks ago, that was cool.

Although I don't know about that species in particular but he looks cool and I like how softshells look too.

Awesome Gerard. Always a treat to see your animals. I love the dotting on the backs of these guys.
