Prices range from hatchlings going from $75 to $125. Usually the magic number is $100 for a hatchling spotted.



Ive seen adults for a wider range. Trios of adults can go anywhere from $350 to $700.



Ive kept a huge assortment of herps in the past. My spotted turtles are by far the longest residents of my home (besides my cat). I have never kept a turtle so full of personality (besides maybe an adult N.A. Wood turtle). Both N.A. wood and spotted turtles are both part of the genus Clemmys, with one other species being the bog turtle. And seeing how both of the turtles I (and many others from what Ive been told and read) have kept have so much personality, that is why I am on a mission to buy some captive bred Bog turtles (also the same genus). These turtles are really fun to watch. They are very inquistive, but very skittish at the same time. Spotted turtles are an awesome choice for a turtle. They stay small, they are very attractive, and seem easy to breed. They are just a little expensive. But I would rather pay the extra cash for spotteds than contribute to the mass population of RES's looking for new homes because their owners didnt realize they get that big. Ive rambled enough now.
