What kind of turtle is this?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
hmmmm bigheaded turtles.... great personalities, but have to be kept as singles and are almost impossible to breed. A few people have managed it though. 2 of them were Austrians :D
 
I have to say these guys are great pet turtles! I was lucky enough to find mind for sale at a Reptile expo 3 years ago for 75 bucks. I almost fell over when I got a confirmation on the price. I just thought that having Bigheads was going to be a pipe dream. Mrs. Wang the bighead eats from my hand and also seems to be inquisitive about what's going on outside her tank. Great turtles.
 
people are paying big money for some asian species today. 800 for a bighead from the pet trade is not seldom.
