General Care Discussion :: weird noise

Taking care of your turtle's overall health.

My turtle was basking on his turtle dock today and I saw his mouth open slightly and he made 2 little chirps. He's never done this before. I looked under the health section but there's no mention of this. Is this something I should be worried about, or am I making something out of nothing?

I think it might be respitory issues. Maybe not though, lets hope not.

I checked and he doesn't have any of the symptoms listed. He never breathes out of his mouth.

yea my turtle makes some noises everynow and then, but after almost a month of making these noises i see no sign of sickness. i just think they are vocalizing something haha.

just be sure to keep an eye out for other R.I symptoms
