Soft Shell Turtles are very unique and you can probably guess why. Their shells actually are soft and are typically described as leathery and flat with flexible edges. Their unique color works as camouflage in their natural habitats since they like to bury themselves in sand and mud at the bottoms of rivers and lakes.
They have snorkel-like nostrils and long necks that they use to breathe underwater! Soft Shell Turtles can actually grow to be pretty large when given the proper care. It�s important that you provide them with a nice habitat that mimics their natural surroundings, where they can bury themselves into some cool mud and stretch out their pretty brown necks to breathe. We�ve got everything you�ll need at TurtleShack.com to take care of your turtles. You can always call or email us with questions!

Central American Wood Turtles are native to southern Mexico and Central America. They are omnivorous and love turtle pellets but it�s also important that they get vegetation to supplement their diets which will change as they age. In their natural habitat they spend most of their time on land, in rainforests, near sources of fresh waters.
