Hi Megalon,

Bog turtles live in South Carolina. You would need a permit from the State to keep them. Also, if you are having to buy one from across State lines, you would need a Federal permit in order to do this.

There are breeders in Florida. Captive produced bog turtles are almost always available at the Daytona show. They run about $500 for a hatchling.

Your first step would be to contact the State to see if they would even allow you to keep them. Good or bad, my experience is that they will not.

Good luck.
