My turtles are outdoors and I have both shallow water dishes and a shallow running stream of water for them and they never go to the water just to defecate like a cat to its litter box. My seem to poop wherever the mood strikes them. True, they seem to like to poop in water and it could be because they enjoy washing their tails in water-haven't you ever seen yours moving their hind feet back and forth against their tail while in water? Mine are very adept at it I also see them doing this in wet grass or when it starts to rain. Tess
