Feeding and Nutrition :: how much is too much?

[Joddog]

I've cut down the number of pellets my turtles get each day to two each, and place a large piece of lettuce in there as well. They are demolishing the red leaf lettuce in such a short time! Can I add more lettuce or should I limit the amount? The piece of lettuce is about palm sized or a tad smaller.

Is that size for both of them? Keep an eye on the stool, if its very loose then I would cut back on that. Don't forget to try different types of veggies.

They ignore carrot and will reluctantly eat kale. Lol And yes, they share that piece of lettuce.

[Joddog]

They also ignore green beans.

I'd try the carrots again and some cucumbers as well. Check out http://www.redearslider.com/plants.html for more ideas.
