    For those of you who replied, I’ll provide you with a bit more info. I’m located in south Florida, that is why I cannot sell my babies. When they hatch I would like to trade for the same sub Species if possible of the same age. But we must wait until my eggs hatch (never count your eggs until they hatch is what I have always been told). As for my trip, I was fishing in-between Marco Island and the northern point on the Everglades National park. Near 10,000 islands. Two of the turtles that we encountered were located right at the park boundary about 15mins north/west of Flamingo. The other was somewhere south of Marco. From what I could see they were a uniformly dark shell color with what looked like grayish skin. We could not get very close before they took off. At this time I have no pictures but I’m planning a trip later in July to go back with the same guide. P.S.—The fishing was GREAT, large Snook 22lbs, Tarpon big one got away, little one was about 45-50lbs, Red Fish all sizes and even a couple of shark one really big one. Take care all I’ll let ya know soon as the eggs start to hatch. Dave

    Contact me. I was in northern FL and caught a few red fish, speckled trout, and 2 black tipped sharks as well. Great camping trip but all I saw in turtles was a couple of Loggerhead sea turtles, beautiful to watch. Scott
