those things can give you mad salmonella



This is very true because they produce a lot of waste. But he gets regular water changes and taken out and scrubbed down once a week so the likelihood of this particular turtle giving it to you is a lot less. I still recommend washing your hands when you handle any reptile or pet for that matter.

Going to go around schools and teach kids about turtles.
