I offered 7 month old turtles some cuddle bone when they were a few months old and they were not interested. The other day, I tried again and they just loved it! So, now when I try to feed them their usual food, they dont eat anything for the past 2 days. Should I just feed them some more cuttle bone? Can they have it everyday?
I have one that sits at the bottom of my tank, and my turtles ignore it excluding a bite or two off of it every three to four days. I like to have the whole in there as it helps with their beaks (gives em something to chew and scratch their claws on )
If all they are going after is that take it out for a while, and introduce it again later. You definitely do not want them to over eat it. To much of a good thing is a bad thing and such.
