Mine love anything that is red or orange. Red pepper, grapes, strawberries...

In fact they start wars over the strawberries...it scares me.

Lol, I keep reading about how much turtles love strawberries, Napoleon won't have anything to do with them. He actually won't eat any fruit, come to think of it... Veggies he's cool with, especially carrots, but I tried strawberries, canteloupe, honeydew, apples and grapes and he wouldn't touch any of them. I've never tried red pepper though...bet he'd like that.

haha yeah, I did that too! After I read on this page that you could feed them carrots I immediatedly cut up a baby carrot into tiny pieces....

she went crazy! because some of the pieces were floating and others sank to the bottom, she didn't know where to swim too.

I haven't seen her that excited since I put I goldfish in her tank for the first time.....(yeah I know not to do that anymore!)
