I bought my turtles some dried shrimp and thought they'd love it. They did, but not nearly as much as they love red pepper! Holy cow! I put one small piece in their tank and they are going nuts! Definitely a sometimes treat. They are taking turns chasing each other while carrying the piece around. Lol

Maybe it's the coloring? Gotta go check mom's garden now...

Not sure, but they loved it! One hid it in the corner so the other couldn't reach it. Lol Then he got it and swam off with it. Great entertainment!

It's fun when they're younger and can interact with each other

Yeah, red pepper is definitely a winner! Bobo would go absolutely nuts when she spots me from a distance with the little pieces of pepper in my hand, I could swear she can even smell it

. But she also likes yellow and green pepper. I guess they like the sweeter taste, regardless of the colour.

I will try this with my turtle. I'm gonna buy four different colors (green, yellow, orange and red) of pepper and replace very small pieces front of her...let see witch one she first picks up...
