As I am new to this, and Tucker has only been with me for 2 weeks, I have to say that his/her most amusin' habits is playin' in the filter intake and outtake... How Tucker swims against the current, but goes right back after freein' themselves!! ^_^

What funny habits does your turtle/turtles have?

Every turtle basiclly does the same thing as you will figure out later as two weeks is still pretty early and your turtle still prob hasnt settled in his new home lol

What iv noticed turtles pick up Really quick is the feeding schedule. They ALWAYS want to eat and will usually eat anything you throw in there tank. Also with basking they will stack up on top of eachother which is pretty funny. Also how they sleep sometimes under water when they get all spread out and try to hold on to stuff or how you say with the filter, if the filter is really strong on the out take part it will make the turtle flip all crazy when it gets into the little wave area and they just freak out.

I just posted this in another post but keep an eye on the intake, you want to make sure the strainer stays on and that they can't get stuck between the intake tube.

Occasionally when I feed my turtle he/she does a vibrating hands thing with the food. Has anyone else seen this?

lol thats your turtle trying to fight with its food. its a dominance thing for most turtles but when they are big it cane be for mating aswell.
