:I feed my turts in a separate container with warm water (which encourges pooping). Usually within 0.5-1 hr they both produce at least one poop. After I put them back, they may poop one more time before the next meal. My tank bottom is bare, so it's pretty easy to see.


Does not sound like constipation then. Could just be personality. All of my turtles whether res or boxies really do have their own personalities. One sign of constipation would be kick with their back feet.
