Yes, lots you need to look out for!

Turts can be very difficult to keep if you get their setup wrong, they can suffer from quite a few serious health problems, and can stink your house out, but if you get it right in the first place then they can be very easy to keep and very entertaining animals to watch.

To give any specific care advice we'd need to know what species they are?

Post some clear photos and we'll ID them for you, you need to know what they are to know how to care for them correctly.
