Vicky, if it wasn't for his shell, I wouldn't remember that he's a snapper, much less a turtle.
Yesterday morning, he was being such a bad boy, insisting to climb out of the pan. I knelt down next to him and had my face right over him, telling him no over and over again, and forcing him back down by pushing on his nose. We must've fought for over 6 minutes, because he quickly became agitated and started pushing back. At that point, I was certain a bite was coming next, but instead he cowered in a corner and sulked until I left the house at 11:30am (for about 40 min).
So, in a nutshell, he didn't/wouldn't bite even after being provoked. :roll:
