Mainly pellets, and krill and shrimp. They don't much care for veggies. I got them to eat spinach, but that is on the do not feed list. They ate some collared greens after I soaked the leaves in tuna water.

Young turtles at least mine wouldn't eat any vegetables.Try bloodworms my map loved them. Now they eat pellets large krill shrimp carrots and red leaf.And turtle shots.

Any of mine are obviously due to fault autocorrect.

For me, the jello shots work with respect to the turtles consuming more veggies but it seems to me as though they don't digest the veggies. When I feed the turtles pellets, their poop looks like a healthy and formed brown log. When I feed them jello shots I find bits of shredded veggies. I am starting to think that the gelatin interferes with nutritional absorption.

Bits of shredded veggies is normal with a vegetable diet - at least with my RES.

Cant wait to try it for my Milton. He wont go near his cuttlebone so this will be great for him to get it in.

Quick Question: How do you guys puree the sweet potato without baking it first? Or do you baked it?.. I just figure that cooking it prior to making the shots would deplete the vitamins...

Can't wait to make these for my little monster

Poke holes in it, wrap it in plastic wrap. Microwave. Same way you make baby food.

i dice it and throw it in the blender

I was just watching Dirty Job's and they made meat jello shots to feed sharks in a tank. Just thought I would share that.

Shark Week is coming!!



Jello shots for Clyde and meat shots for his sharky friends.
