Since this is posted in "other pet talk" I'm hesitant to think that you have mis-spelled "sulcata", and calling it a turtle makes me think its NOT a sulcata.

We'll need to see pictures so we know what type of chelonian we are giving you help with.

Do you have a male and a female?

I suggest you send a PM to gerards. He's very knowledgeable about water turtles.

Wow, pretty rare turtle around here. It seems there is some dispute as to whether this is it's own species, or a subspecies of Lissemys punctata. I think an albino would be very scarce. Go on bing or google and type in breeding lissemys punctata or breeding indian flapshell turtles.This might help you. At least your climate is perfect for these.

One of my favorite species, and a real joy to keep. Have seen a couple albinos and I hope you are successful. They're a pretty easy species to keep, incubation as been a real issue for some reason. Email me and I'll share some pictures of my personal setups. [email protected].
