Welcome. You have quite a collection. Which one do you like best and why?

Hello and welcome...boy thats a lot of torts...

 

[imperialreptileslv]

I dont know

I work in a pet store
And get offered turtles/Tortiose's all the time
I usually rehome the ones I'm not big on
So if I keep them I usually dig them for some reason or other
I really want Matta Matta or Fly River
Is this fourm manly or Tortiose's or a mix?

 

[Jacqui]

I have had mata matas and they are interesting animals. We are mostly tortoises, but do have a turtle section too. All are welcomed here.

Oh my...you have addressed my dreams. When I figure out how to acquire my fly river...IT WILL BE MINE! . Mata mata's are also a turtle I would love to keep, if I ever find some captive bred hatchlings for sale .

I see them for sell here in Vegas
Have you looked on kingsnake.com

 

[RedfootsRule]

None ever for sale on king snake, that I have seen. And over in the phillipines I see all of the fish hobbyists "just picked up this turtle for $50 in the local market, thought it'd be nice in my aquarium"...Sometimes, I get jealous
They are VERY rarely bred in captivity, due to aggression, and as far as I know all exportation from australia is prohibited...

 

[imperialreptileslv]

It is,
But I believe there are populations on Papua New Guiana as well?

A rescue I received a couple years ago
Fed hot dogs and pedigree 😱
She now resides in a friends pool converted to pond with an American alligator
And her diet is now health and she has lost some weight
