just rm100 plus. haha.... have to bargain with that shop person. haha...

what type of bedding u r using?look like dried grass

nice stars dai... hehe...

Yalor... I think March onwards harder to buy tortoise liao

If enforcer caught someone and slam him with big summon... that will cause chain effect and all other traders will be scared to sell

damn! wanna go out and buy more tortoises or not ar?? hahaaa!

neway, does de law oso applies on turtles?

I hope there is way to let us apply for license soon. At least that will not make our tortoises illegal immigrant. hehe

i got a message today that M. Auliya just launched a new book, something like identification guide to the tortoise and freshwater turtles of brunei, indonesia, malaysia, papua, philippines, singapore and timor leste. the book is to be used with the new law, so now you can expect wildlife officers to be more knowledgeable, to a certain limited extent.

license? that would be impossible to obtain unless your animals have all the legal documentations. you can try to apply and get your animals confiscated.

FYI, radiated is in CITES 1 so no license could be rightfully issued

waaaaa! u guys got really cool turtles!

may i know where u guys keep them? will they be dirty n smelly like those normal red slider terrapins?

turtles do need more maintanence compared to tortoises... actually, it's easy... just change the water when u see they are dirty and that will do just fine...

the bigger they are... they bigger they poo lor... tat's why bigger turtles are more dirty...

Curious about which 12 species you are keeping ? Do you mind telling us ?
How big enclosure you giving them or you mixing certain species in one ?

Thanks in advance

where is d shop???

Unless that Radiated are either CB fom parents with CITES paper or imported as CB with CITES paper ( legal way ) !!!

How I wish I was born pre-CITES period or befoe Malaysia signed as a CITES member .Then I can legalised all my CITES listed animals once Malaysia sign in as a member !!!

Many of our crocodiles and Arowana breeder / farm are form this way beside buying pogeny from existing farms who own them !!!

New member reporting in. Just got a pair of star tortoise today. Tried my best to read previous version and post but too much

Hope I can get advise from all you experts.

My first question, my ST sleeps a lot during the afternoon. Is that normal ?

Welcome here

Where did you bought your stars? Any photos to upload

My stars bought from Malacca. Kindly give comments and advise I'm seriously noob.
Here is my humble rig

what size is ur star ?

Roughly about 3 to 3.5 inch from front to back tip of the shell.
