The only time my kinosternids stay on land is when they are being bullied. If you have multiple turtles together I guarentee the ones on land are more then likely being bullied & trying to stay out of the agrressors way. Yes they do come on land to bury themselves occasionally if the soil is damp,otherwise mine stay in water & if I dry dock them for a fwew hrs. they get antsy.
