Endangered than dun keep ?? If they become extinct in our lifetime how to play then ??

Better play now when they still around LOL
( But bear in mind that me and my friends have breeding plan in mind and have more than 20 of various size between us )

If just buying one to play for fun I dont encourage - KEEP / PLAY something less endangered

Just a side note
All those in market ( babies to a few inches ) are CB somewhere in this world just that the way they landed on our shore is not legal !!! Surely not WC as too rare to find such number in the Wild !!!

Whereas other sp ie Indian Star , Leopard ....etc deem less cheap and less endangered are mostly WC or CH (born to WC parents in ranches )

The smallest of our Yniphora ( my guess is less than a year old !! )

- Kinixys , Pancake , Spider web , Yellow foot , Regular Red foot , Impressa , Burmese/asian Brown .....................

Haha I dont think possible !! Even I ( such close friend to the other SAM ) have not managed to see all ( too many farmlets - spread the eggs around ) of his collection !!

We need to know more information before can help
Your Sabri is ??
- Sp of chelonian ( guess is Indian Star )
- Age / size (guess is 3 inch or smaller )

Something must be quite wrong here
- Only 2 inches after 1 yr plus with you !!

A pic of the said speimen will be better but Uzairi 's request for the enclosure's pic is equally important !!

Yahoo , Google ...etc will have the fastest reply for special requirement ...etc

As for pricing I dont think many for sale in market nowadays thus no-one or very few ppl can answer you on that !!

Some do keep them ( me included ) But I have only just started to keep them ie this year !! So cant be of much help !!

Maybe wait for others to reply !!

Bingo !!! And most thought all Turtle are Tortoise or vice versa !! ( My green tortoise or Star Turtle LOL )

Each individual sp has slightly different requirement in term of diet and housing needs to one another !!

Local protected specie not allowed to keep without license !!

Which sp ( RES or FRT ) are we talking here ??

Most probably Cloacal Prolapse

Need to find the causes as well
- Diet given for the last few weeks
- Enclosure and upkeep .......................

Dont expect more input ( I and some here dont like to predict/assume things ) with limited information provided !!



Good idea !! Thanks

Our pet chelonians like this paticular activity v much be them straight ( 1.1) or otherwise ( 2.0 or 0.2 ) .........etc

They like 3 p , 4 p , multiple players too !!!


LOL

I am very straight ( dont get me wrong ) they did not influence me !!!
