Feeding and Nutrition :: Feeding Cabbage As Substitute For lettuce

[Rishabh]

Both Are The Same I Think... Is Feeding Cabbage Leaves Ok? I Can't Find Lettuce In Our Locality As Its Not Much Popular Around Here...
And Can i Feed Boiled Egg Whites To 1.5" Hatchlings?

Yes, you can use boiled egg whites but not too much. Can you find dandelion leaves?

[Rishabh]

No Not Common Here... But Hibiscus Are Available In Plenty..

Thanks For The Help Steve..But I Think Young RES Don't Have A Liking To Veggies... I Gave Them A Very Small Piece of Cabbage Leaf..They Just Bite It And Go Away...

Most RES like greens - but as with most food - they will try a bit move on... eventually they will come back as if starved

Thanks For Replying SSMcLeod .... They Do Like The Egg Whites....

I think I just replied to your other post. Study the feeding area of the site. You will learn how to moderate their diet so your turtles stay healthy. It's crazy how some turtles are picky. Mine will eat ANYTHING I put in there.
