Feeding and Nutrition :: I really hope my turtles like mazuri turtle food!

Turtle diets and eating habits discussed here.

Cause i ordered a 25lb bag lol. They sell purina at a feeding mill around me so them having it shipped to the store costs nothing cause it will come with the normal shipment.

I definitely have to give some away but thats okay a couple want some but dont wanna buy even a 1lb bag.

I would recommend looking into some vacuum freezer bags and vacuum sealing the extra so it will keep longer. Keep it in a dark location that is dry, and it should last a little longer, though know that at least one study has been done that shows that vitamins and minerals in pet foods degrade fairly quickly, like after about 1-2 years. I know you have a number of turtles, so you might be fine.

If we were closer, I'd totally buy some from you! But shipping would be too much. When you get it, you could post some ads on craigslist or something :)

Yea i was thinking about doing craiglist. I was thinking $5 for 1lb.

Depending on where you live, shipping with cost still could be cheaper then ordering online stilll maybe. I will look into it.

I don't know where you are at in PA, but I'd definitely be up for having a pound shipped to me! I've been looking for Mazuri for the last 2 years to no avail (besides online) and I haven't needed any until recently.
