Turtles are not particularly "ticklish." The most sensitive areas of skin are between their neck and front legs, or behind their back legs (in the shell). Many pet turtles also enjoy being stroked on the underside of their neck. My companion turtles have very ticklish feet. You should not tickle them because it generally makes them livid. If they are in a good mood beforehand, they will start dancing when tickled. Make sure to use plenty of hand sanitizer after tickling your turtles because they are known to harbor the salmonella bacteria.
