Does anyone know of someone who works with Keeled Box Turtles (Cuora Mouhotii). They are such fascinating turtles!

Will he have any available?
Not yet, Michaela. These are his first eggs, and therefor first chance to raise up that subspecies. A few of us have told him that if he sells them we will beat him up!

Stay tuned though. If success continues, you can't keep em all! Heck, I thought I was going to keep all the spengleri we produced. I have 11 right now and I can just about handle it, haha. I'm fine now, but in a few years, oh boy! That's a lot of worms. Hopefully Steve gets his own place soon, or the SSP keeper has me start sending some to zoos :)

Anthony, I know this thread is quite old, but whatever happened to your partner's eggs? Has he been successful at subsequent clutches? I hatched six this year, was wondering if he might be interested in trading babies to diversify bloodlines

I have found them very hard to get, keepers keep them or trade them with friends. I had one years ago that was fifteen dollars and he was the coolest turtle we ever had.

Sooo, I'm guessing none of the eggs hatched?
