When you have a new turtle and he is shy you can befriend him through his belly :). Some turtle treats you can use are cooked chicken or hard boiled eggs. I recommend cooked chicken because it is easier to hold in water. Rip the chicken into 1 inch long strips a little less wide than your turtles head. Hold a piece in the water near the turtle but don't press it on him. Let him come up to the chicken and bite it, once he bites it he may turn away but he will come back. Next time he comes around let him eat it, offer him another piece the same way. Try not to follow him around with it because he will think that you are chasing him. Through this gentle process your turtle will learn to associate you with food and that will make him your friend! Just don't give your turtle cooked chicken everyday, maybe every week or so. Turtles will keep on eating even when they are full so when the skin at the top of his legs bulges out of his shell don't give him anymore. Good luck with your turtle!

∙ 12y agoMy baby turtle follows my finger around. And when I whistle and clap my hands my baby turtle comes to me like a dog! And I did not even train it. You can get your turtle to go to you by waving food around your turtle's head. And then trail the food over to you. Then your turtle will come to you. If that does not work, try it a couple times and show your turtle that you will not harm it.
