The Northern Australian Snake-necked Turtle is the larger representative of the genus Chelodina. The name of this species has changed frequently and it was also known as Macrochelodina rugosa or Chelodina siebenrocki. It is trouble-free in breeding and very voracious. You can feed it a variety of invertebrates, fish, meat and pellets. It is a good swimmer and therefore it is a good idea to offer this turtle plenty of room to swim. Since it is a carnivore, it doesn´t need UVB radiation either.
