I personally wouldn't pay 5k for a a Fly River Turtle but If someone wants one badly enough they will. I agree seems a bit over priced.
Is there a respected vender for Fly River Turtles in the US that anyone recommends?
Don’t know much about FRT but I actually have seen 1 before in person, the way it swims and looks has no other way to describe it expect for one word “majestic” these turtles are extremely rare and extremely expensive, for a 6” FRT I personally would be willing to pay maybe 3.5k depending on the location of course but the one that I say was about 15-20” and I think it was around 12k
Out of stock though. Envy the people in Thailand, they can get Fly River turtles for only like a hundred bucks
5k is way overpriced IMO. there was a vendor on here selling some for like 2.2k i believe for small ones with paper work few months ago. their really not rare. I guess depending what state u live. I have an opportunity to get one for 500 at 6". Here in socal they are pretty cheap when I see them for sale. I would only pay thousands for rare morph ones like a pied or that white one that predatory fin has.
Here link to the vendor on here. 2.7k. Still crazy overpriced imo.

Vendor - Fly River Turtle!!
Yes, that’s correct! We have LEGAL captive bred Fly River Turtles on the way, this is our second shipment of the first captive bred LEGAL turtles. Cites paperwork is included with your order. The turtles are just about 5” and came in absolutely fantastic on our first shipment. This next shipment...

The past few days I have seen a few vendors on Fakebook who claim to have captive bred FRT.I kind of doubt that they are captive bred but it would be wonderful if they are.Also,two vendors actually used the exact same photos!
I should have jumped on it when a member here offered me one for under a thousand dollars years ago.
