Okay you know, I love all of my pets. They are my children. So ya gotta tease 'em sometimes, cause it's funny. Obviously I'm in no way doing these violently, be soft with your turtles (y) This is how to mildly annoy them, not how to violently make them angry
1) Grab their front foot and shake it
OR
2) Put your finger under their front foot and wiggle it
3) Boop the nose ! (I also do that when they are too snappy, they are so offended they calm themselves after lol)
4) Never let go of that shrimp
5) Show the pellets then put it back on the shelves (they get so upset when I do that istg, but always give them at least one when you do that otherwise IMO they just end up being frustrated)
6) Slightly change the direction they are swimming with a small push (mine always stop and look at me when I do that lol)
7) My turtles tend to go on the basking area when I feed them, so sometimes I just put a dried shrimp on top of their head.
So do you annoy your pets too ? I know that turtles are less responsive to these kind of things than cats or dogs but I still have fun with them.
Anyway, don't forget to show them love after lol
