Product Description

Found only in Mexico and Honduras, Mexican Ornate Sliders are a very pretty slider, with deeper colors, red circles and black spots. They thrive in mostly water setups and love to bask.

True omnivores, they readily take pellets and most anything else offered. Adults do well in larger tanks, and they make very pretty additions to outdoor ponds in warmer months, or in warmer climates.

    My turtle arrived in less than 24 hrs, and is beautiful. She is even bigger than I ordered, and looks really healthy. She walked right into my pond, and was eating the next day. Thanks!!

    Customer service was great, Turtles look great when I got them. But over priced, I found the same turtles elsewhere for less than half price.
