After many years of searching, Cory finally got his bucket list animal - the Fly River turtle or pig-nosed turtle. This protected species hails from Australia and New Guinea and therefore requires a special CITES permit in order to own one. They can grow almost up to 2 feet (60 cm) long in captivity and feed on a diet of fruit, plants, and proteins. Find out what the little turtle's name is and who his future roommates will be.

100% I’ve been watching for 4 years and he has always talked about wanting some
Oh. My. Gosh!!!! Mildly freaking out right now. Congrats on the new baby! Elmer is so precious - I think Dean’s looks like a Hugo.
My grandfather's name is Elmer,sadly he passed away a few months ago. Such a good name.
Dreams do come true!
THEY'RE SO CUTE! & aw dean is a great friend. The way he hopped up to get the warm water really showed he wanted to help.
I am insanely curious in how this is going to go. I have been wanting to get one myself but am afraid. Document everything for us please.
I had to keep rewinding it when Elmer takes off with his wafer and Cory says, "And he runs!". That is so adorable and hilarious to me. 🥰🤣😂
Love the cabinet that holds Elmer’s tank- GORGEOUS! Congratulations, Cory! Couldn’t happen to a nicer guy. Well deserved, & super -lucky turtle!
Congratulations on the turtles! Love that you were committed to only getting ones with proper documentation; so worth it to see how happy you are now. Best of luck!
Two grown very smart men with there cute litlle babies so cute so tender. Awesome to see!!
This is so cool!!! It’s going to be great to watch it grow through the years. So glad you were finally able to get your Fly River turtle Cory!!🙌🙌
Coop videos always have a certain “Vibe” to them and it’s all thanks to Jimmy’s editing and Audio. This was no exception. Congrats on your new water pet!
OH MY GOOOD! Been watching since the early days with Lamont! When the coop had around 30k subs or less and I remember you talking about FRTs and how you'd love to have one. It's a dream for me to have one too! At least I can live vicariously and watch yours grow! So awesome you were able to get babies! I can't wait to see them grow and watch their personality!
I’ve had mine for about 4 years now and I love him. Welcome to the club of having perhaps the coolest turtle!

@@computerwizard3908 mine is still young it’s carapace is only about 10-11” long and it weighs about 3 lbs as of about 2 months ago. From what I’ve read they can weigh up to almost 40 Ibs when fully mature at around 20 years. Mine is an estimate of 6 years old.

@@computerwizard3908 Ours is about 21 years old and easily over 20" long. Luckily, it's a male and they don't get a big as the females. But, he's still a very large turtle. He lives in a 4'x8'x30" 600 gallon tank and I wouldn't keep one an anything smaller as an adult.

Where are you guys purchasing them from? I would like to get one but can never find any place that sells them. And I know they are poached and are illegally sold but don't want one that way.

@@dugangant unfortunately unless you are in direct contact with the the original person who either bred or imported its hard to know for sure the nature of how it got to the states. In my case I bought it from a guy who inherited the turtle from his deceased father who bought it to put in a display tank at a salon in Miami. The son kept fish but didn’t have time to take good care of it so he posted an ad on offer up of all places and me and my dad split the price and got it as a Father’s Day gift for ourselves. So I don’t know to put it shortly but luckily mine now enjoys a 1200 gallon pond all for itself instead of the 200 gal it was in and sharing with several large aggressive fish with its previous owner
They’re so cool. I hope to have some some day. I’m still in the doghouse for bringing home a 60lb alligator snapper so I should probably wait a while

Congratulations Cory, such a long wait. You deserve it!
Elmer is so beautiful, and what a perfect set up! hope we get to see it with some greenery soon. I assume turtles munch on plants a lot but surely some val would be nice
Congrats on getting Elmer! so happy for you, especially since I know you've wanted 1 for so long.
I demand more adorable footage of these guys!!
Congrats Cory on finally acquiring a fly river! Such a cool animal! I look forward to watching it grow through updates on the channel.
It is so cool to see you finally get your dream animal! I look forward to watching it grow!
Omg they're adorable! Happy to know they're in good hands with you and Dean!
🐢💕👋💕🐢💕🐢💕& Lady Bird crunching her shells 🐚 is so so satisfying lol
Congrats, Cory! I know you have been talking about getting a Fly River for years and I'm thrilled you were finally able to make it happen. I grew up with one of these...romaine lettuce was a favorite treat.
I LOVE THEM😍 They are by far my favorites 🥰 Thanks for sharing them ♥️💚🙏🤩
Super cool, congrats to the both of you. I look forward to seeing them grow.
Im happy for you Cory, I know these have been a dream for you for a long time, I'm also glad you did comment on the CITES and being legit, these are absolutely not for everyone and they shouldnt be spun around to anyone with the money just because they can.
Oh he’s sooooo cute! 🥰😃 Looking forward to seeing his adventures!! 🐢💕
Very nice,glad you got them .You have wanted them as long as I have been following you ( years)!
so cute; very happy for you and Dean! Those two turtles are lucky!

Congrats on your guys new additions....best of luck with Elmer and to be named.....will enjoy the clips on their progress
You’ve wanted these for a long time, very happy for you.
Where I work, we have huge Fly River turtles. They're omnivorous but a diet higher in green stuff is recommended for adults. Fruits! They love sweet fruits like peach, mango, etc but not too much as sugar can fatten them up to the point of obesity.
Congrats Cory!! Sometimes dreams really do come true!
So cute! Congrats!
Congratulations on your new ultimate turtle pet. I remember you wanting to try and breed them a long time ago.
Wow he is cool .. can’t wait to see more of this turtle… I have never seen one before till now seriously didn’t think they existed .. I’m excited as if it was mine .. thanks so much for sharing this … sooooo dang cool man
Brad and Matt did a fantastic job bringing in there creatures! Yes Cort any water turtle that has been in above water conditions need time to expel their trapped air in their carapace. Beautiful FRT!!!
He's so cute! I'm so glad you finally got one!
No freaking way. Total dream animal for an aquarium. What Cory's are those??
Great Video Cory, really enjoyed watching you tinker around in that amazing fish room/rooms 👌
Congratulations, I am beyond happy for you.
They are adorable!
I'm so happy for you Cory to be able to mark another thing off your bucket list.
Congratulations on your turtle, its adorable
Those are gorgeous!
Congratulations! Been wanting one for a long time and you got em.
I started following the channel long after Murphy became Mighty so looking forward to Cory having fun with his new pet. 2 feet is quite a lot of turtle.
Congratulations! Very exciting.
Congratulations! That tank is like a palace for the little dude!
So cool! Congrats Cory!
One of the most Cutest animals I have ever seen !!!!!!
Elmer looks awesome and so does the tank. Keep up the good work Cory
Glad to see you finally worked out the Symantec’s. You’ve been talking about wanting one for a really long time, enjoy!
Your video editor has a great sense for sound, and a good sense of humor! tell him he is doing a good job!
Turtles are the best. I love my turtle almost as much as I love my dog. So happy for you!!!
Congratulations, Cory and Dean! It's so thrilling to see that you're adding reptiles to your collection. My bucket list also includes pig-nosed turtles, as well as Asian arowanas, freshwater stingrays, tortoises, parrots, and saltwater crocodiles (all can be legally sold and kept here in the Philippines, with the necessary permits and documents)

Congrats to you and dean! The Fly River turtles are awesome!🙂👍🏻
Very happy for you and Dean! I truly enjoy freshwater turtles. I once had a Red Eared Slider. I was a child and named him/her Diver. As an adult I now know they are too much work for me. I shall live vicariously through you and your turtle 🐢.
So cool man, good luck with em!
Congratulations. Glad you could finally get something from your wish list. And that Dean could be part of it.
That’s an adorable turtle!
Congratulations glad you finally got one. I hope you find your metallic platies next.
I just finished watching Kamp Kenan’s video of his huge Fly River so to see a tiny one right after is crazy! Never seen baby ones before!
Wow! So exciting! And so cute!
Elmer is so cute! Congratulations! Also Lady Bird has gotten much bigger since you last showed her off.
What a Beautiful turtle 🐢 reminds me of sea turtles the way they elegantly swim around 💕
Very cool! Congrats!
Just a warning. I had a pair of large rare turtles here in Thailand and after over a year the male got stuck in some decoration. He went in and couldn't back out and drowned. I thought he'd escaped until the water started to smell. You have potential death traps in your tank. Good luck.
