I have no first hand experience with fly river turtles.Oh so cute.
I don't know of anyone that has one on here. However, maybe @Markw84 who does have a lot of turtles does or can help
They are almost totally aquatic, somewhat like sea turtles, and rarely even get out of water. One of my friends kept a number of them, and they were kept separately in huge tanks with sandy bottoms and some plants. I don't recall there even being any areas where the turtles could get out of the water, although there might have been small platforms in the tanks for them to rest on which I don't recall seeing.Is anyone currently keeping a fly river turtle? i would like to talk about the best way to care for my baby frt. Substrate, food, shell appearance, etc. View attachment 356573

Has the shell been dried out for a period of time? Maybe during shipping?im trying to find out if his shell is normally supposed to look like that. it may just be shedding or something
