    My RES tends to nibble like he’s curious if i let my hands linger in his tank for whatever reason. BUT! If he’s annoyed because im handling him it can be SOOO painful. And he’s still juvenile 😭😩

    • @DanTheTurtleMan_

      It's crazy how they know whether to bite aggressively or curiously right?

    I have a RES who had problems eating (he was a rescue, and half dead when I found him) and will only take food from my hand. He will literally turn his head sideways to get at the food without biting me, and on the very rare occasion he has clipped me, he opens his mouth and jumps back like he's been electrocuted. Even if I stick my fingers in his water before/after he's eaten, he will sniff first to see if I have anything. Never bites. And he can be food reactive. When I give him chicken, he's escaped from his feeding tub and run off with whole chicken thighs :D Just won't bite me for anything, lol.

    A bite from my Red-Ear Slider feels like pinching the skin of your fingers with your fingernails.
    And they don't let go.
    I never bled, but it hurts, but not so much that I would scream.

    My full grown Chinese Softshell bit me when I was cleaning his pond... it was like razor blades crushing into my finger... so much blood.. and he did not let go for a long time, while he was scratching my hand with his needle sharp claws.

    Last Saturday, my 5 inch(Carapace) Snapper got my index and middle finger as i was fixing his screen lid. Deep and blood all over lol! Glad he did not hold on. The cut is still mending lol! The squeeze was more painful than the laceration.

    My god I love your Diamondbacks! They're so cute!
    Edit- When my turtle bit me, it was like a small pinch, it happened because I was trying to clean his shell, with an old toothbrush, needless to say he did not like that and snapped at me, fast forward a few months later, we have another one, a female turtle when I picked her up to get her out take for cleaning she bit me and tried to bite my brother, she even ate one of our fish out of hunger! She's more on the aggressive side, my other turtle (my 1st, I have 2) only hisses nowadays, but he does that when picked up, if anything he's more on the passive aggressive side. But if you read the entire comment thank you for taking time out of your day :).

    So cute that Flipper was so gentle with you. Lol
    I remember my first year with my mud turtles, I was checking them for shell rot. the bigger one didn’t like me handling him and he bit me. It didn’t hurt much but it just startled me; I accidentally dropped him into the aquarium. He kinda bounced off the floating log and into the water, but he was swimming immediately after. I did grab him again to make sure he was okay and he was; just was hungry for more vengeance. Lol
