Turtles like to be left alone. They will get skiddish if you keep reaching into the tank to grab it. Just let it be. They like to relax under the basking light and go in for several dives throughout the day and of course, looks forward to the part of the day when you feed it! Remember, do not feed it more than once a day and the total amount of food fed to the turtle should be about the size of its head. Do not overfeed it. Obesity is common among turtles due to handler's inexperience with caring for turtles. Good luck!
