It seems like she knows who I am, but I wasn't sure. I got her from a science teacher at my old college, and he said that they don't recognize people. anyone know? Thanks :D :P

Oh yes they recognize you. Mainly as the person that brings them food but they defiently know who you are.

I wonder if that's how my wife recognizes me. Hey you're that person with the paycheck.

When Gimli is basking, I can't go into his room if I want him to continue. My boyfriend, on the other hand, can go in and do whatever and he stays up there. He knows I'm the one that feeds him.

Your turtle has been conditioned to connect you with food, so technically, yes.

I believe Trevor recognizes me, most likely because I'm the one that feeds him, but he also recognizes my voice because he gets excited when I come home from work and call out to my husband.

My hubby has been in the computer room (where Trevor is) one floor below, and has seen Trevor wake up from a sound sleep at the sound of my voice- sometimes sleeping on the platform, sometimes in the water.

Plus Trevor calms down at this "tick tick tick" sound I make when moving him in and out of his aquarium.
