do turtles pee?
i just liften up my turtle and found a puddle of yellow liquid...

musk or urine?
 
probably musky urine :) yes turts pee especially when you hold them and they dont want to be...so do torts (except in torts when they poo youll see a white "bird poopish" liquid...that is their pee...)
 
sorry guys..didn't realized I posted 2 of this topic..
My internet connection was going wierd

so vicedretard was it a mix between urine and musk? is pure turtle urine yellow?
 
i have seen it shoot pretty clear on some three toes...it could have been a mixture but at the same time turt/tort pee smells bad...ammonia is normally the key if it smelt really ammonia filled probably pee...in my expierence when it comes to box turts/ aquatics if scarred they normally realease both as a mixture...
 
of corse they pee...

no offense man but you have been asking some of the dumbest ?'s i have ever heard. and u ask them multiple times. you have like 10 threads going about the same couple of topics. as for your beneficial bacteria/filter threads, they should mostly be housed in some type of media in your filter (bio balls, lava rocks, anything with a good surface area).you turtle dock isn't gonna cut it for surface area.

Man chill out. He has every right to ask questions that you make think are dumb. Who are you to join MFK and start bashing members? Your kind is not welcome. :banhim:
 
vice; yeah it could of been a mix then. thanks

thank you for having my back evilxyard..

spexmonkeymaker; didn't you read the part that said "sorry guys..didn't realized I posted 2 of this topic..

I am asking questions that may seem stupid to you because you're maybe an expert. i just started this whole aquarium/reptile hobby. i didn't even expect to bring home a turtle that day.
and where did you get turtle dock outta this thread?
 
I am no expert but i have owned several turts over the years. i took that info from the other threads you made about filters and what not. there r several of them. my bad tho didnt want to seem like a dick. i just found it funny. im sure you will make some other threads that make me laugh to lol. peace
 
Lighten up. Everyone starts somewhere.
