General Care Discussion :: no signs of poop

Taking care of your turtle's overall health.

Post Posted: Sat Sep 15, 2007 2:37 pm   no signs of poop

Roca is still acting normally but I haven't seen a turtle poo for a long time! Is it possible he's eating it every time he's pooping out? I was cleaning the tank yesterday and there wasn't even fish poo!

So where is all the poo going? :?

Very possible he's eating it.
