Hello!
I'm relatively new to keeping turtles. Over the last year or so I've fostered a few and now I have one of my own.
My turtle is an Eastern painted turtle, and he's quite active and friendly.
Whenever someone is near his tank he starts swimming/pawing at the glass.
Could this mean he's hungry or not being fed enough?

It means that he's already figured out that humans mean food is coming
