Well first of all, I finally figured out what gender my turtles are for sure, they're both female. i knew they were both the same, but i thought they were male. i was wrong.

anyways, Crush is still acting funny. She's not quite as cranky with me anymore, but she's not as active as she was a couple weeks ago. She'll swim around a lot in the morning, but in the afternoon and evening she just about only lays on the bottom underneath the u-shaped log. this is abnormal, she used to swim constantly all day. also, she hasn't been basking very much. she'll bask for just a little bit in the morning, but that's it. she used to bask a lot.

she still eats well and eats everything. when i take them out and let them roam the house / back patio she's quite active and runs around.

any ideas? should i be concerned? Squirt is still very active and quite her normal friendly self.

thanks!

oh, if forgot to mention. Crush's shell has also lightened up a lot since i got her a couple months ago. it was very dark when i got her. i checked for soft spots and didn't find anything that concerned me.

just wanted to add that detail

What are the water temps? Grey Goose has a topic about his turtles change in behavior... sounds similar.

The water temp is at 75 F.
