Hi!
I am going on a trip to Bali in about 5-6 weeks and I have 3 turtles I will be there for about 1-2 weeks.

Basic info:
They all eat lots and normally, only stop when they eat their turds.

So back to what I'm here to ask:
[!] How long do turtles survive without food
[!] Do you think they'll start chewing on the artificial leaves?
[!] will they start biting each other for food (I hope not)

My parents said that since my uncle comes over to our place 2 days a week, why not ask if he could feed them.
So then again, how long can they survive without food?

and I hope they don't open the filter and eat their turds that are in there.
hello there

It depends on the age and health, but I would not have turtles kept together unattended. How big are they? Can someone check on them or can you relocate them to someone who can supervise?
