New Christmas Family

You know the little big and good shaped male Reeve's I posted in Dec, 22nd.
I posted him in some Korean Turtle Cafe too.

I received a message from somebody who desperately has been looking for a mael Reeve's for about a year.
I wanted one so bad that he asked me to sell him him if ever I'm willing to release him.

He said that he really envies me because the Reeve's who I just got was so wonderful.

I gave it some thought and decided that I already some Male Reeve's, I better let him have one he's been looking for so long.

I asked him if he can care for him with love.

He said "Absolutely.".

I made an arrangement with him to pass him my male Reeve's.

I was happy to see him so happy with him.

Honestly, since I release him to another turtle lover, he sometimes came upon my memory.
Even my mother used to call him in some cute name like "Bawkdoly" which would be translate into "Luck Dear".

Just around one week or so, he was fonded memory for our family.

However, I was very happy that somebody who really loves Reeve's turtle brought him and keeping him in good conditions with love.

I met my a train-buddy from military and was on my way home back by bus.

I suddenly felt like calling a turtle-selling middle-aged lady in very far southern local fish market where I visited in Autumn.

I just called her to check how things are going.

I heard some real unexpected news from her.
She said that a couple of male Reeve's are around in neighboring fish stores.

I was floored because it's Christmas eve in the middle of coldest period of a year.

I decided to visit there the next day, I mean "Christmas".

I was floored there were a couple of them available.
This is coldest period of the year, how could it be possible?

They said that they were the wild ones brought by fishermen.

It was too cold for them to stay that way.
I brought all three of them from 2stores.

This one was the biggest with the carapace measured 17㎝.
At the first sight, I knew that his tail had been nipped off. Is it possible that some turtles get their tails nipped off in the wild?
His carapace right up on the head had been broken in the wild. But it is very beautiful reddish color.
He showed his curiosity.
This one was little bit shy but in the best shape of all 3.
