I have a softshell turtle but don't know what is their kind. This is the picture of the softshell. She is a female and laid some eggs but we don't have the male so currently want to purchase the male one. But don't know what is the species.

That is the tank for them to eat. And I am located in indonesia so if somebody sell the same species that is albino and ready for breeding contact me. Private message me or you could contact me in bbm. My PIN: 764BE5FA

shes a good looking turtle, the place that you bought her from didnt tell you the species? and you probably should not flip her upside down in a tank of water like that, this puts a high amount of stress on the animal, and i can also imagine it must prevent normal breathing, as they do breathe air

It is an albino softshell but I don't know the specific name because there are spiny, Florida, Chinese, and many others. Thx for replying though

I think it's @Gerards that has all the albino turtles. He'd be the one to ask.

Most likely a Chinese albino soft shell. Most albino soft shells are Chinese.

Likely a Chinese softshell. Head shape resembles a florida but I don't see any pattern at all on the back that a albino florida might have

I'm not good to identify softshells but she looks like Pelodiscus sinensis.

I saw some years ago at National Reptile Breeder Expo in Orlando Florida. They were Asiatic soft-shells(Amyda cartilaginea).
maybe that is them.
