General Care Discussion :: How can I spot check my turtles?

[Tech2025]

Hello, is there a way to see how healthy my turtles are just by looking at them? Or taking them out of the tank and observing them?

My vet suggested weighing my turtle every 1 or 2 weeks. It's a lot harder to keep track of that visually because of the shell and all. I use a kitchen scale, and put the turtle in his carrying case on top of it.

There are lots of other things you can check, but that's one I learned recently!
