To hv such wonderful creatures as pets, for me its like a dream come true  But its sure not easy as the maintenance must be very costly. Not many ppl can keep exotic animals such as tigers, crocs, and rare species of monkey, for instance. Is it okay to keep them in single place/ pond? Dont they show aggression as in PNT's case?

Our country do regulate most if not all chelonian sp thru importation and special permits to keep !! But how many go on to apply for their existing pets when law was implemented few years back ? Sorry I don't have the source ! Cheers

How come 2 from the same batch but turn out differently ? The top one has a darker/blacker head with the lower one a more grey head ?
Ready for something ? or just a freak of the clutch ?
