Everyone's on exam week i supposed, including me. LOL. Thanks for the wishes.
Yeah, but breeding turtles/tortoise is a bit hard. Will try my best to make it a successfull breeding project.
p/s: Btw, i just came across a wild Asian Leaf Turtles on my way back to cyberjaya. A female, quite big, bigger than any Asian Leaf i had.  thumbup.gif I took it home and wash it and feed it. There's a lot of them here, just that they are inside the forest next to the road. I wonder where they'd go if the government cut all those trees and develop cyberjaya even more.  sad.gif

Where did you specifically found them? Which forest? I work in cyberjaya but never noticed one.
QUOTE(ekiddie @ Oct 9 2006, 02:50 AM)
chaco? wat's tat?

and if it's de elongated... as i see it's nice... but it's not so nice on de pics i found on de net about elongated... de one i see are more light beige even it's carapace too but most pics on elongated i've seen are mostly brown wif patches and yes, de patches are very much like elongated....

btw, wat's de market price are like? expensive?? as i see my dad client's house are for sure EXPENSIVE! hahaaa!! donno whether the pet is or not tho tat's not de solely pet around... hehe...

wink.gif

maybe post a picture for us next time you go there. then we can tell the species
QUOTE(uzairi @ Oct 9 2006, 11:45 AM)
Well, it seems that ure not giving it the right foods. I wonder why, mine was healthy even without basking them under the sun. Only pellets and the shell is strong. I feed mine with Nutrafin Basix and Sanyu turtle sticks.

QUOTE(ekiddie @ Oct 9 2006, 12:40 PM)
and yes... i don sun them either... they grew well without any problem... hmm... i oso just feed my RES turtle pellets and some veges... mostly cabbage...

neway, would wanna ask haf anyone here had a problem wif their turtles growing algae/fungus on their carapace? mine did! hmm... and i never had this problem b4 but now... why and what's de cause?

here's how it looks like...

it's my noti lil' stinkpot... hehe...

wink.gif

If you guys dont sun them then do you provide your RES with uv bulb? blink.gif. If dont then maye just provide calcium food is enough
algae on the carapace is confirmed because of the water quality. not really a problem because in the wild this acts as camouflage. but as a pet, of course dont look nice la
QUOTE(EuJax @ Oct 10 2006, 09:57 PM)
ekiddie, better watch out as Musk turtles tend to snap whenever being held up.

crazymouse, if you got the picture from Pet Family then its a Razorback Musk. LoggerHead Musk have an orange plastron whereas Razorback Musk dont.

Here is two more picts of my Black Breasted Leaf turtle...and a plastron shot for you Kamekame. Cheers.
Regards

waa very nicee

uzairi... finger's OFF ha??  shocking.gif 

eujax... ya, thanks for de advice... i can see tat too... everytime i held them up... they are opening their jaw and tries to bite me! hahaaa!! and as i see... stinkpot have a longer neck! their neck can really stretch till de back... well, not to far back lar but quite back too!

kena bitten by razors and not on de finger but at de skin's part... de most vulnerable to bites! hahaaa!! nvm lar... learn...

go petsmore... got black breasted leafs there... 3 of 'em... nice!

all de radiated i saw are > RM1K... i wonder, are they THAT nice? i see sulcata looked alot nicer than radiated... to those who donno... radiated = stars to them! hahaaa!!

kamekame... u want malayan box turtles ka? next round i go Penang, i get it for u want? they don cost high price... but definately special than a normal RES lor... hehe... actually, their carapace are nice too and it's an easy turtle to pet... they can be dry, lil' damp or even on wet... works well for malayan box...

de malayan box turtle that i have r being rescued from a bunch of punks tat DON't have the love for animals... huh!  vmad.gif

err used to have a map but i think i've deleted it.

go along the cheras highway going to pj at midvalley (either from cheras or from plus highway). just after the junction coming in from PLUS, you can see a junction just before a flyover to your left (signboard says taman desa something). take that junction and go straight and you will reach a trafiic light. go straight untill you see a row of shops on your left. its located there next to a saloon.

the shop is actually more of a fish shop and the tokey there is excellent when it comes to fish and aquarium plants. only once a while do they have turtles. rather ill treated i should say. they dont really know how to treat turtles.

BTW the shop is closed on mondays

just want to share some experience with u guys...

After few weeks of monitoring, i've noticed that my tortoise appetite is usually much better in warmer condition

if i only on my uvb lamp which isn't warm, 27c to 28c, their appetite is slow and they are less active. Especially in morning, it will take some time before they will eat

if i on my basking lamp, and temp is around 29c to 31c, even in early morning or evening, their appetite is super. They are also more active

Uz: I think my Tortue is getting fat la. From the front he looks like he's going to outgrow his shell anytime soon! laugh.gif

(Btw, my water is a bit cloudy/hazy. Just tukar air semalam so I can't understand it. Will it be bad for Tortue?)

Btw, here are some pics of Tortue (and how his schutes look like) - this was taken a few weeks back by my colleague before I bought the UVB bulb.

Can you see the depression/dents in the schutes?

Yah, I also notice that too. My star will eat more when I on his basking light during the mornings when he has his meal heheheh... they like heat. But if I sun him, he likes to stay in the shade. sweat.gif

Btw, this is my snapper.
