If you after WC try your luck in open air market - Gaya street , the weekend market under Giant carpark( kolompong is it ? ) or that up-stairs bird/fish shop ( Lim's bird if I am not wrong ) next block to Wisma Merderka !!

Malayan Box not that rare in Sabah or should I say whole of Borneo !!


Cheers

okey will try the lim's bird as mention by Sam first. if not gonna go gaya st. this weekend..

So hows ur turtle now? any better? I guess its good to keep him away from the water now. as it easier to get infected. ><

btw if you love turtle try go the fish shop at hiltop.. they got this aligator turtle, long neck turtle, and pig nose turtle.. for display :

hiltop in sandakan?

i put my turtle in a container now, but it seem restless without water. i dunno what to do. feel really bad for it..

Hill top ? Foo Keong ? The only shop I can think of .

Btw the lim's bird they keep it to the left side of the shop under some bird cage ( unless they don't sell anymore or shift place ) - be ready for dearer price than gaya st's as these are sold for release !!

Cheers

No no.. hiltop is in kk luyang area.. as mentioned by sam its foo keong the turtle are like.. adult's palm large ^^

i guess its ok to let them have some water as long as its clean

Yeap its foo keong. have you visited them before? I asked them they said only RES allowed for sale now..@.@

okey thanks sam. I guess will pay a visit tomorrow if weather allow.. hopefully they got some variety.. btw dearer mean more expensive?

Ya I know him ( tell him Tawau Arapaima guy send regards ) from few years back thru a fren ( keep tortoises only) !!

Theres another few crazy tortoise collector from KK that I know of , none into turtle !!


Cheers

Alright will do when i pay my next visit there.

btw I think hobbies prefer tortoises over turtle.. maybe they are cuter?

Like I told you before tortoise easier to keep as no need to care for water !!
This thread starter loves and keep more turtles !!

Cheers

Oh yea my bad but tbh i never see shop sell tortoises.. I guess the order based on request? Considering the price of tortoises r quite high.

So sam.. Do u have some turtle for urself? Or just tortoises?

Havin my lunnh now go to visit uncle lim later haha

Like I say before I keep both but more tortoise than turtle !!

Cheers

Sifu Sam have a mini zoo.heheheh

Oh yea. Now i remember i saw your turtle pic before

Btw visited lim's bird.. They got 3 malayan box sized around 3.5' at rm20 each. Quite big for a baby m.box right?


Hahaha yeap would be glad to visit his zoo.

Thanks for the reply

I am based at KL, Cheras. Do you know where I can find it?

Robert

No one will offer those for sale legally at your side !! Even illegally will be out of sight - to regulars only I think .

Cheers

What to do if RES not eating?

are they new? maybe they not yet get used of the new environment? are u feeding them pellets?

Like I always say in this thread too many unknown how to help solve equation ?
