: I was just wondering if I should get a tortise or a turtle. Basically, I just want to know if turtles (painted turtles) are as friendly as tortises. Do your turtles come up to you and eat out of your hand or do they hide in their shells? This is really important to me and I would love if you helped me out by telling me about your turtle or tortise. Thanx!!!

i had painted turtles off and on for over ten years. all of mine readily accepted food out of my hand. they are a little snappy when they are out of the water but still eat out of my hand.
my red foot eats out of my had and occasionaly thinks my toes or fingers are food too.
