Taking care of your turtle's overall health.

My Turtle (Speedy) went up onto the basking rock and layed out on it and started to breathe like a frog (with the skin around his jaw inflating and deflating) i dont know how to explain it better than this. Is this RI? No sounds come out of his mouth when he does this. THX!

He's not only breathing, he's smelling.
