Ploughshare , Angonoka , Yniphora

They look great. Love the way they look. Very nice.

Those ynips are everything.

I see your adult ynip doesnt have a very visible ring anymore on its carapace. Is it bcos it's already very big and mate often?

The ones here we have are still having a very obvious ring on its carapace.

Yours look like the ones in the wild.

Maybe mine are old very old already while those in your country are just maturing or has just became an adult !!

They are more stable in reproducing : nest size , number of eggs beside size , fertility ............

I won't mine getting more if I could lay my hands on adults ! New bloodlines beside more hatchlings per year .

Maybe you should swap tortoise with fellow hobbyist. Lol

But they are engraved these days (the WC)

Also maybe most of mine are the "runt of the shipment " that got left out and thus I got lucky and got a chance to buy !!

The better one are offered out to the " better buyer" who are willing to fork out more for the perfect specimen - having growth rings do looks nicer !!

But for breeding I need breeders , seasoned breeder who knows what they are doing LOL

I wont mind exchanging bloodline , BUT easy say then done !!

Cheers

If they are offered to me , engraved or not I will take if I have the fund and price is reasonable !!

I saw some adults ynips are for sale here. Price is ridiculous as u can expect. Lol

They used to be afforadable back in 2008. Damn i should've invested in them back then

It's mandarin time because it's lunar new year !!

I peeled for them as who knows how they were treated back in China !!

Hahaha. Gong xi fa cai. Yniphora surely brings luck in this year of goat.

After a long needed shower overnight , mating takes place in almost every enclosure !
