Touching a turtle's back can have different feelings and reactions for the turtle, depending on the individual turtle's personality, environment and physiological state. Generally speaking, a turtle's back shell is hard and smooth, and may feel like frosted stone or smooth porcelain to the touch.
Some turtles may enjoy being touched, especially when they feel safe and relaxed. At this time, they may slowly extend their heads and limbs to indicate that they like the touch. Other turtles may be uncomfortable with their shell being touched and may try to hide or shrink in order to protect themselves.
It is important to note that a turtle's back shell is part of its body, similar to our fingernails or hair, so treat the turtle with respect and care to avoid unnecessary stress or injury. If your turtle is not interested in being touched or feels uncomfortable, respect its feelings and stop touching it.
