The time has come [ look at my age ] where I don't have the "heart"
to maintain anymore. Sooo I'm gradually making available the last of my exclusively T. macrospilota ( "Macros/Ornate" ) Diamondback Terrapins.

These are { by NATURE } BRACKISH WATER turtles.. and have been maintained as such since 2013! Doesn't matter that others have claimed they have kept theirs for "25+ YEARS" in freshwater - these available have thrived in BRACKISH WATER since they were 6 months old. [ unless stated otherwise ] BRACKISH WATER is easier than fresh .. COSTS LESS to set-up and maintain .. and is NATURAL !!!

All are thriving well on Aquamax pellets .. fed in freshwater.

There are a few 1-2 year olds .. a 2019 pair and a pair of captive hatched
Texan / Gulf Coast from 2017 { date corrected } [ shown ]

These mentioned will range from 500 - 2500 plus FedEx next day. Verified PayPal .. is preferred.

EMAIL ONLY .. for info - include your experience with pics of set-up in initial email please. - [email protected] . Additional pics available.. after yours.

Thanks all for looking...

This is what she looked like on 8/20/2020 [ when I acquired her ].. after being raised in fresh water from 2017 hatchling -- and what she looked like in mid-April 2022.
She loves Aquamax pellets! Brackish water does it again!

( you don't have to change your present filtration system to go Brackish.. salt will not hurt it )
