The females were obtained locally in a trade for spotted turtles.
If both parties have permits then there is no problem. And they do!Nice looking stars.
I thought spotted turtles were protected in Illinois?

They are thriving, Ken. They are awesome tortoises.Tink, that is a PERFECT group. 3.2. The more males u have the better!!!
Thanks, Berkeley, I do have the proper permits and so did the other collector. The Illinois DNR approved all transactions. We are all big fans of our shelled friends and are working to perpetuate these species.
