this is just when they wee, similar to a birds urine. its nothing to worry about, in fact the opposite because this mean it is healthy. Also..whoever said you shouldnt bath a turtle- a herman tortoise IS NOT a turtle!!!!!!!!! there is a huge difference which you should know if your going to give somebody advice with this animal!!

you shouldnt bath a turtle. you should just put a water bowl in its enclosure and let it wash itself off. :)
