Our live animal section…

We currently work with over a dozen different species of turtles and tortoises and plan to continue building our captive colonies.  Our collection includes Leopards, Stars, Russian, Pancake and Greek Tortoises, Diamondback Terrapins, Black Knob Sawbacks (Northerns), Twist Necks, Pink Belly Sidenecks, 2 species of tropical wood turtles, 4 different types of African Muds and a couple species of Asain turtles too.  As nature allows we will be offering the highest quality, healthy captive bred offspring.  From time to time we will also offer captive adult animals.  Having connections with breeders who often don’t build a storefront like Turtle Towns, we also have access to other turtles and tortoises.  If you are looking for something specific, please contact us.  We will do our best to locate the animal for you.  One thing we promise, is to deliver nothing but the highest quality healthy animals.  We will never sell an animal that we feel is not healthy- that’s a guarantee!

Please note that we do not buy or sell any species native to Pennsylvania, where we operate. It is illegal to take turtles from the wild in PA, and it is also illegal to buy and sell native turtles.  We support these regulations- so please don’t inquire about any PA species!

Also- we do not ship any animals to states where that species is illegal to own.  Know your state’s laws and don’t ask us to ignore them.

We will also buy your captive bred offspring.  Contact us when you have hatchlings!!!

African Mud Turtles- Pelusios and Pelomedusa  $Varies

We purchased an entire collection off a Private breeder and have everything from common african species to the very exotic species.  We’re still working with each group to get it established and learn the slight differences between the variations on these great animals.  However, we will not be keeping all of them, and as soon as we know which ones we’ll be giving up, they’ll be posted here.  If anyone is looking for something specific – please contact us now to get on a wait list.  These will only be released to established private collectors for breeding purposes.  These are all long term captive animals with extensive histories on each one.  For the “casual collectors” we hope to have hatchlings from some of these guys this year.  We’ll be offering those up for sale as soon as they are ready!
