We also got a 2.2 group of these beautiful pelusios in, too. They are very pretty turtles, and have also started feeling already. I am very excited about African muds right now.

Were these from the ad on fauna, or do you just have the same source as them?

Nice turtles. They look a lot prettier then most Pelusios.

No, I didn't bring these in, they came from Erik at Fasination Herp. I have got like 10 turtles from them so far, and everyone had been 100%.

Excuse my ignorance, do all turtles fold their heads to the side like that? Are they unable to fully retract their heads linearly in the shells? I think it's super neat, either way!

These came out of Cameroon.

Not all turtles pull their heads in straight. I like how the different "sidenecks" look
