My RES eats its own poop. Is this normal? It's a very healthy and happy two-year old that is fed every other day.

Don't worry it is perfectly normal

Yes it's normal. If it's any consolation, a lot of turtles will eventually outgrow it. Mine did.

Yes, it is normal, young turtles will eventually grow out of it.

I just found it ironic that the appropriate place to write about poop eating is in the feeding and nutrition section. lol
