my baby turtles always seem hungry as ive said before, but they just seem to be hungry for ever. i feed my baby turtles that are 1 1/2 and almost 2 inches 8-10 mini food sticks. the sticks are about a quarter of an inch long, and they eat 8 in about 1 minute

i just got my two turtles fifteen new feederfish since im going on vacation for 5 days. and they ate 3 of them in fifteen minutes, is tht bad for them, or will they stop eating them after a few minutes. i dont want to get so many if they eat them all in one day

I would give the fish plenty of hiding places so that the turtles can't get to them. Smile

they are omnivorous like other sliders so i would recomend some dry shrimp put in wherever you feed your turtle along with the regular baby turtle food and the fish are good for teh turtle you only feed him once in the morning and before you go to bed during lunch he is supposed to chase the fish for excercise thats howe it is with my 3 RES and my RBC
