Soft Shelled Turtles

[ace-e36]

hi all i have two soft shelled turtles which i will be selling due to moving house, they are really interesting creatures and have seriously long necks.

their shell sizes are 5" and 6" both in good health to, the smaller one had its tail nipped by the other when they were much smaller so have been separated for over a year now.

just wondering how much i should put them up for sale?

many thanks

Are they florida soft shells or chinese soft shells?

Regardless of what they are though i would advertise for offers for them, I only have experience of chinese soft shells but IMO they aren't worth a lot as larger turtles become harder to house, can be particularly aggressive, can't really be handled and generally people prefer to buy them young so they can see them grow up,

Again if they are chinese soft shells i'd be looking to get say £10-£15 each for them, £20-£25 if your really lucky
