I wouldn't use body wash on a turtle. It was not made for animal use and while it may have been tested on animals does not mean its good for them. The wash could irritate its skin. Best answer don't wash your turtle its not necessary or go to the pet store and look for a soap that was made for turtles. p.s. if it was tested on animals it wasn't tested on a turtle and it does not mean it has negative affect on the animal.

So turtle went down to the river to wash his hands, but since turtles walk on all four he got his hands dirty coming back up the path. So Anansi told him to go wash his hands again.
