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.

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..?

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

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.
