Natural Aquatic Turtle Food, Hatchling Formula, 8-Ounce

Turtle love it

I have four hatchling Red Eared Sliders. Their shells are about 1 1/4” around. I have had them for 3 weeks and had originally bought them ReptoMin Baby Floating food sticks as their primary food. I also got them the ReptoTreat gammarus sun dried freshwater shrimp for snack/treat purposes. I gave them the ReptoMin Baby food sticks to begin with, and this was after having them for a week and I know they had not had anything to eat. They acted like the ReptoMin baby food sticks were not even there. They totally ignored them. After 3 or 4 hours they had not eaten even one of them. So, I decided to give them some of the shrimp and BAM! they instantly devowered every one I gave them. I read it was not a good idea to have hatchlings eat shrimp for their main diet item. So, I gave them some fresh Romain lettuce, the dark greenest part of the leaf and they liked that. Over the next week I continued to give them the ReptoMin baby food sticks and they continued to refuse to eat them. I even soaked them in tuna water, as some other people on the Internet had suggested, and they still refused them. They did like all insects that I threw in their terrarium. I also found some small worms in my wife’s flower bed and they ate those as well instantly when they were offered. I decided to give up on the ReptoMin baby food sticks. I got back on Amazon, read reviews, watched videos, and made a decision to buy the Zoo Med Aquatic turtle food hatching formula. It was stupid cheap, 5$ for an 8 ounce bottle. That’s half a pound! The pellets are very small about 1/16 of an inch. I was worried at first, but was pleased with the amount of food. I got for the money, now if they would only eat it. To my surprise, they went to the new food immediately, and started gobbling up every little piece they could get to until every single piece was gone. Wow! What a difference. I will say, do not waste your money on ReptoMin Baby floating food sticks for your baby turtles unless you want to have a big disappointment at feeding time. This Zoo Med aquatic turtle food is a great bang for the buck and your baby turtles will eat it up immediately! Thank you, Zoo Med and Amazon for solving my baby turtle feeding issue.

I buy this turtle food for my extra large Gold fish. The ingredients are so much better than fish food. 3 out of the first 4 ingredients are actually real meaty proteins vs pea flour and veggie.

Took my turtle a couple of days to warm up to this food and try it. Now he can’t get enough of it!

The little turtle has loved this food ever since it was small. It has now gradually grown up.

Bueno pero ha perdido calidad

Our sweet little hatchling has enjoyed these! Hes grown quite nicely over the last 2 months and this has been pertinent for his meals in addition to produce. He has upgraded to bigger pellets now but these were a key in his healthy growth!!

This food is for our baby red eared slider that is almost 2" wide. Found him upside down in our lawn and rescued it from the neighborhood cats. Not knowing anything about turtles this has been a learning experience. Feeding him this ZooMed hatchling food is just right for his little mouth. The pieces are pretty small so it is comfortable for him to eat. And he wants to eat a lot. This is his main diet. He also likes dried meal worms, shrimp, blueberries and assorted bugs... Yum.. :)

Las bolitas son de las pequeñas, ideales para el dispensador que tengo. Justo lo que iba buscando.

Ma tortue ador cette nourriture car la nourriture flote au dessus de leau
