I know it will probably sound silly, but I am so happy, because I just got my RES to eat mini shrimps. My Western Painted loves them. The RES are cautious and have probably only had pellets all of their lives up to this point, but I am trying different things for them and today we have a success! I love it. :mrgreen: :msgreen: :D :D :D

Glad your turts are enjoying the new grub! I get excited over the littlest things, too. :)

My RES love shrimp too, though it's been a long time since they had any.

I haven't fed shrimp in awhile either, gonna have to grab some. Variety is always a good thing. Wait till they start eating Veggies, your gonna be really happy then;)

I used shrimp to get my turtle to eat when it seemed like he stopped eating his pellets for awhile. Guess he just wanted something different.
