What kind of turtles are these?

[Mad About Cichlids]

Just wondering if anyone know what kind of turtles are these and do they keep the colorations through adulthood.

You are 100% rigth Very beautifull and hardy turts but also very endangered in the wild and apendix 1 of cites. In the US you can have them but they cant cross states lines without a special permit and only cb specimens are allowed. Also very expensive. They keep those amazing colors into adulthood

Very cool looking turtles!!! I like how they keep those spots into adulthood.

That's probably why can't seem to find much infos on them at all. Guess I'll let the pros keep and breed them. Very cool how they keep those colors throughout their life.

Yea alot of animals will gradually lose their more colorful baby colors as they grow.
