Also a Koi based veggie pellet food will trick Bob into thinking it's regular turtle pellets. I use the koi food in the veggie and wheat forms even though Piggley eats everything in front of him just for variation.
A very few turtles just give you that sad look until you feed it. You can tease him with the food to get Bob very excited so he just gulp's it down not knowing or thinking first that it's a veggie food.
Enjoy those great colors now , as Bob grows those patterns will change and the color gets darker. He with age will look dark greenish to almost a brownish color that some say is ugly. I thinks it look's very handsome on a turtle !!!
