This morning I noticed that one of my turts started to yawn underwater when he was sitting on some plants. Is yawning a sign of an RI?

if it was under water he was probably drinking rather than yawning. Mine all yawn occasionally (above water). It's normal unless it's constant.

Petri yawns once in a while it's really cute.

I've actually seen her sneeze once too... it was adorable, but she sprayed water all over my boyfriend so he didn't find it as cute!
