Some updates on my purvisi hatchlings. I picked up 4 juvies off @Flaviemys purvisi in January this year and they have been doing fantastic. Was a little sad to see the pattern less plastrons leave me so soon but loving watching these guys grow and develop their plastron markings.
I am not sure where the whole licensing situation in QLD with this species will end up, but I am sure as hell glad I got my hands on them. Kevin and Marc have done an incredible amount of work with this species to get them into private keepers hands. Thanks again Kev for your assistance and generosity before, during and after with these bad boys. It is truly appreciated.
These photos are from when I first got them home. I will add further comments down showing the gradual update over the last 8 months. Not sure how it will look just mashing all photos together

These photos were taken mid at the end of July.
