When I'm taking my turtles and putting them in their feeding tanks,
They reach their necks around their back and try to bite me.
Any answers why??

They are just associating you with food. They'll bite practically anything that's in their water.

Because they are turtles :wink: Don't be alarmed, it's their way of dealing with things.
