Scientific Name : Carretochelys Insculpta


Common Name : Pig-nosed Turtle


Age : 5 months


Size : 90 - 110 grams


Quantity Available


Bred By : me


General Description : Probably the only juvenile Pig-nosed turtles available for sale in Australia. Great condition, see pictures of underbelly depicting healthy condition with small fat deposits forward of rear legs. No signs of any skin issues. Eating very well on Val, dried figs, some hikari algae pellets. Far more tolerant to temperature than most literature would suggest - plenty of information available. These are the ultimate freshwater turtle, nothing really compares to them, very interactive and provided good water quality provided, very hardy. Great for keeping with Cichlids or Rainbows or any other species that likes hard water and high pH. Presently not able to be kept in Victoria (this is changing with the new regs coming in), requires class 2 licence in NSW.

Location : Nth Queensland


Willing to Freight? No problems freighting at buyers expense, $80 to most ports with AaE regardless of number of turtles.
