After me trying to feed my turtles lettues twice they finally ate it. There six months. Is that early or what? Now to get them hooked on blueberrys.

That's cause for celebration! 6 months is pretty early but not unheard of.

Blueberries - yes, good. Steamed sweet potato also very good. Carrot peel, bell pepper, tomato, apple peel, dandilion leaves, fresh basil, turnip greens - all very good.

Im guessing there six months. When I got them 4 months ago they were quarter size. They seem like hatchlings. My other one only picks at live prey and pellets though.

Hooray for veggies! I've never had a problem getting my turtle to eat lettuce. She's been eating it since she was a little 1.5" baby.

My turtle (I got him 6 months ago, he was probably 1-1.5") started eating lettuce after three months. Loves the stuff. I don't know what his age was when I got him, I assume a little older than a true hatchling. I've talked a lot to my husband about how people have problems getting their turtles to eat when our turtle will eat anything. I busted him the other day gnawing on the only ornament in his tank (it's a cute little gremlin, he had the ear in his mouth!). So, I took that away from him. He's a rabid little bugger! Hasn't gone for my finger yet ...
