turtles went mad..

i was about to sleep when i decide to take a look at my 'Thursday' n 'Friday'..yep, tat's d name of my turtles...

when i went near d tank, instead of hiding their head in their shell (like they always do), they were stepping on each other n tilting their head high up above d water surface..n d geli-est part was tat, they actually reached out for my hand( tat's holding d turtles pellet) til their neck was bout 2-3cm away from their shell..trust me..u know, they try damn hard to get near to me or rather d food in my hand..

then i thought "wow, they must b hungry.." they've never acted in such a way b4...then once d pellets r in d water, u can see them eating as though they haven eaten since d last time i went to toilet??..anyway..

they were gulping instead of biting gently on d pellet n Friday(d darker shade turtle) almost chocked itelf, n can see tat d pellet is way too big for its tiny mouth n yet it tries to gulp it! Friday was swimming frantically tat i almost wish to put in my finger n help it to get d pellet out from its mouth..luckily i didn't cox it managed to release itself..or else, my aloe-vera-fragrant-lotion finger would b their supper....

then, i actually saw Thursday n Friday tried to bite each other when a pellet happens to come in between both of them..My GOD! i was so shocked...i mean..turtles r like so gentle, slow, harmless,(cox they r afraid of u more than u r towards them)..then, like they r not afraid to b alone...n etc etc....but man..they were so wild jus a moment ago!!!!!! how do u expect me to believe u turtles again???? *puzzled*

now they've stop eating... they start to act like usual..calm n static..i mean they can remain in d same pose for quite some time n....harmless again..

p/s: don't think i'l ever bath them with my fingers near them again....i'l jus hav to figure out a way.. *limei: how do u bath yr turtle??*
