The krefts are nice too but the saw-shelled is definatly a stand out.
 
i get my own endangered mary river turtle this week:D:D:D
 
i'll be sure to post pics, i need new camera batteries that actually last a bit then i will photograph all my herps
 
hey hornet. your turtles are looking great mate :D:D:D
mel
 
yeah mate. will post em after i eat dinner :D:D
they are good. pigs just like yours i bet. :D:D
 
yup mine sure are, altho they prefer fingers, go straight past the food to my fingers lol, never bitten but you canb tell they want to
 
i dont feed them much, altho have been upping the food last cuople of days, it used to be 1/4 to 1/2 a turtle block a day now its about a turtle block each a day
 
when i start making my own they can gorge themselvs
 
turtle block is just frozen turtle food, not exaclty sure what it contains but it comes in 100g packs, my guys are yearlings
 
Although it may be labelled Turtle Food, that doesn't mean it is good for them. Apparently it consists of scraps from the abattoir floor and certainly not recommended to be used as their sole type of food. Try giving them what they would find in the wild, ie primarily fish.
