...there poop is supposed to be dark dark green...

[sonyj]

What is his diet like? What has he been eating recently?

[yaseeris2fast4u]

i feed him different types of pellets and some veggies

[sonyj]

Does it seem more than normal? (just curious if this is why you posted) They're poop is usually a reflection of what they eat and dark green doesn't seem unusual.

[samandnelly]

Yeah...I'd be a little concerned if it wasn't dark green.
Erm, is it normally black?? What color is it normally for your turtle..?

[yaseeris2fast4u]

it's normally black for my turtle and then the poop became green a couple of months ago and stayed green

Your turtle can have dark green poop if he's eating a lot of leafy green veggies.

mine's brown or dark brown. i feed my turtle mostly turtle pellets.

OK, it was black because it didn't have enough veggies. It really must of not had enough protein or something because it's NEVER supposed to be black. A good very healthy turtle will have dark green poop. And a just OK healthy will have brown. When their young it's usually brown.
