General Care Discussion :: Turtle Trying to leave Tank

Taking care of your turtle's overall health.

One of my turtles has been incessantly trying to climb out of her tank. I've checked the the water and basking temperatures, and both are in the right ranges. I've also checked her for eggs, and haven't felt anything. Could she still be gravid, just bored, or is there another explanation?

Maybe just bored, though eggs could be small if its her first clutch.

Not much I can do about boredom right now, unfortunately. I guess I'll put her in her nesting box for a few days and see if that is the issue.
