I've had 2 ornate box turtles for about a year, a male and female, so I'm still new to raising them. This morning the female was in the water trying to push out what I first thought was poop... but she seemed rather frantic. Then I realized it was some part of her body and not waste, when I picked her up to figure out what it was it went back up into her body. As for a description... it was large and flat but I wasn't able to get a good look at it. Does anyone have a clue as to what I'm talking about? I've done lots of reading on box turtles and have never come across anything that would explain this. Any info would be helpful...
