I was wondering if there's a proper time of day that we have to feed our sliders! We've been feeding them at around 7pm everyday!

I feed during the PM simply because that's when I'm home and that's when his light is on. lol

I feed veggies in the morning since they can digest more efficiently when basking. Then they get a few pellets at night. They are very aware of this routine and will not let me ever deviate from it.
