Taking care of your turtle's overall health.

So I was cleaning Maxi’s tank I did 3 water changes in the meantime I let her run around the house for a bit then after changing the filter I had her in her holding tank.. while waiting for the water to settle I happen to smell a poop smell.. sure enough she pooped in her holding tank. So I moved her back to her normal tank and she pooped again this time while watching it was like runny I wonder if she’s not getting enough pellets? I feed her the fluker’s buffet blend every day I have shrimp in a can that I feed her as a treat.

My wife gave her some romaine yesterday but I can’t see it being digested that fast? How do I make the stool a bit firmer?

Usually too many veggies causes a loose, dark green stool. Anything else you're feeding her?
