Other Turtle Discussion :: What do RES like to play with?

[WeirdMeta]

Is their something you can give the turtles to play with. I read somewhere on here they like to play with ping pong balls.

I've used them but my turtles never played with them. Do you have any river rocks in the bottom of the tank.. mine always loved moving them around and redecorating.. I know others have said the same. Just remember that turtles aren't like most "pets" .. they don't have the need to socialize and "play"..

whenever one of the rocks fell, i would find the turtles rubbing against the rocks

Ya I do have rocks in the bottom of the tank (big ones so they won't eat them). I have yet to see them move them around.

Diesel plays with a bottle.

i put it on the floor with her. and she walks around pushing it in a circle with her nose.

i kid you not.

I watched her do this for 20 minutes one day. just walked up to it, started looking at the big end, and then put her dead down and lifted it up to push it. walked up to it again and kept doing it. it just spun, and she kept pushing.

I was on the floor laughing beside her
