Taking care of your turtle's overall health.

I woke up this morning and went to wake up Franklin and he was sleeping against the side of his tank straight up. I got worried because I have never seen him do this so I picked him up to check on him. I noticed that the back of his shell was slightly curled down. He is still very mobile but I am wondering if this is okay.

How big is Franklin? Was he leaning against something as he slept?

He is about an inch and a half and yes the edge of his tank and he is doing it again now when I just got home.

Thats sounds normal to me. I find my turtles sleeping like that all the time.
