Feeding Baby Turtles: Land Turtles VS. Aquatic Turtles

A turtle’s diet solely depends on what kind of species it is. It will depend on its breed but they’re the same but not entirely. As a responsible pet owner planning on having a turtle as a pet, it is essential to know what diet your turtle requires.

For baby land turtles, like the box turtle, you will notice that their diets will depend naturally on their environment as they can adapt to whatever they will find edible in the forest. At the turtle pet store, you can purchase specific baby turtle food that is essential to them as well as bugs, fruits, and some vegetables.

For baby aquatic turtles, often feed on insects and plants as well as on fish. These turtles are omnivores so they benefit from indulging in both meat and plants. It is essential for them to also be fed baby turtle food made specifically for their breed, which can easily be purchased at the pet store, for them to grow healthily.

Any concern you may have about your pet’s diet should be brought to the attention of your vets Derby.
