It's only natural that a turtle gets scared by noises and movement. Turtles are hunted by hawks and other predators, so they need to escape quickly at the slightest sign. I've had my turtle for years, and he still jumps in the water every time I go see him.

Is it normal if your red-eared slider turtle does not like to swim and lays on her rock all day long while your yellow-bellied turtle swims all the time?

Yes. Although red eared slider turtles are aquatic, they love to sit on rock and let themselves be exposed to the sun, air; and basking is part of their natural lifwestyle as it dries their shell on a regular basis to prevent shell rot and fungal infection. So therefore = DO NOT REMOVE THE BASKING MATERIAL or the natural lifestyle patterns will be disturbed. However, if the turtle spends too much time on the rock and hardly ever comes off then it could be a sign of a health problem. See your herp vet.


Your red eared slider turtle has been basking for a few hours now and bubbles are coming out of her nose Is that normal?

Bubbles from the nose could be a sign of a respiratory infection. Others signs of a respiratory infection would be clogged or runny nostrils, lack of appetite, swollen eyes, and open mouth gasping/wheezing. I would be suspicious of the bubbles if the turtle was not in the water.
