My 6 mo. old Yellow belly has been acting weird for 2 weeks . When he is in his tank he swims chaotically at the corner of the tank. When I take him out he walks around the house with my new Savannah kitty. As far as I know YBS are aquatic turtles, not terrestrial. I do allow him to walk the house, but now he thinks hes a cat. Its kind of aggravating, because when Im trying to sleep all I hear is him climbing on his basking rocks and jumping into water, and splashing at the aquariums corner.
I keep his water pristene and he has plenty of room in his 125g. so theres no reason to be out. When he gets larger he will go into the pond but hes still only 4-5 inches.
Is it okay for him to walk around with his kitty freind? How long should I allow him to be out of his tank per day? I dont want him to dry out.
This behavioer is comlpletely different from my other ybs... hes only 4mo. old tho
