This morning I was eating a boiled egg, I was watching my RES and and gave her a piece of the yoke, she went all over it. So I was wondering if its a good idea to feed her boiled egg yoke. Thank you

The yolk is very high in fat so isn't really good for a turtle. A piece of egg white, on the other hand, while not quite so yummy, is ok for an occasional treat.

I give my turtles thin slices of egg whites sometimes, and they go bonkers over them. Sometimes they confuse small sunken pieces of cuttlebone for them and wind up eating a little extra cuttlebone.
