Terrapin nutrition

Hi

I'm doing a college assignment about terrapin nutrition and I was wondering what everyone fed their terrapins and how often?

Many thanks

Jo

Re: Terrapin nutrition

reptomin pellets as a staple diet and shrimp bloodworm fish as a treat depends on what type of turtle and how old but also aquarium plants aswel available always you would feed them once a day up till they are about 6 months old then start to slow it down so your feeding them 2/3 times a week by the time there adult you would give them as much as you could fit into there head as if it was hollow, this will give you a good guide on how much to give them on feeding time.
