Hehe! Most of the turtles that are healthy like to beg! The amount you are feeding sounds about right, although you should give them a bit more variety as far as the veggies are concerned. Don't give in to giving them a bunch of extras - as long as you are only giving them the amount of pellets that would fit in their head if it was hollow and a good variety of veggies you should be fine. A cricket, meal worm, a piece of fruit, or feeder fish once or twice a month for a treat is okay. Check the stickies on top for ideas on what and what not to feed them if you have not already. My 2 inch Donatello begs every time I come up to his container!
