Feeding and Nutrition :: Now working on the fruit....

Turtle diets and eating habits discussed here.

I've tried lettuce, carrot, and some apple as of now and the turts are as eager to eat them as I'm eager to get them on a healthier diet. Even the turt formerly stuck on pellets is eating veggies and friut without running away like he used to.

Good to hear.

Have you tried strawberries? Mine are crazy for them! But don't forget that friuts are supposed to be a rariety.

Even if I try them, I'm only going to use one or two a month as where they sell them in somewhat big boxes. Since my folks aren't that much of fruit and veggie people as the obesity studies would like them to (although they aren't fat), that slows me down when it comes to going into more exotic veggies and friuts, since the rest will go to waste. But they are going to diet soon, or that's what they say they'll do :).
