Those are galbinifrons, right? That's a very pretty turtle. I've always wanted a group of pyxidea mouhotii, but don't want something I have to keep warm in the winter. Do you keep all these Asian turtles outside, or do you have to keep them in some sort of warm house?

Thank you for the compliments.

Emysemys- these are cistoclemmys(cuora) picturata. They were a subspecies of galbinifrons but have been elevated to there own species.
I keep them in a heated greenhouse type shed. Mouhotii could be housed similar I believe.
Irwin4530- I have these animals because 10-15 years ago they were very inexpensive and very easy to obtain, just not always easy to establish.
