Great pictures. The Black-Breasted Leaf Turtle is my favorite of all the turtles. Now all I need is $500.

LOL, Terry, mine is the Fly River. Now I just need $1500 and a 1,000 gallon aquarium...

Wanna bet who gets their favorite first, lol? Darn you... ;)

@Terryo- the black breasteds are so cute, every time I go there they are out and about. They have such innocent faces lol

@kyryah- I love the Fly River turtles, I keep seeing them for sale around me for around $700, It's so tempting but I just can't provide the proper housing for one. If I could that would be the first turtle on my wish list.

I could, if I had a big enough house... The tank actually is the easy part. But that is a project for a few more years on down the road. Then we are going to have to talk about you finding me one for $700.... :D :D :D
