Similar to other animals, there are several types of turtles. These reptiles have different kinds or species that are sometimes hard to differentiate. However, when it comes to the diet of the baby turtles, such a difference is relatively little.
If you are planning to adopt baby turtles, choose from the common types that are the land and aquatic turtles.
Baby land turtles – Feeding time for these baby species is easy because they tend to eat what you see in nature, such as plants and insects. So, you may give them crickets, bugs, fresh fruits, and vegetables apart from the commercially available baby turtle pellets.
Baby aquatic turtles – While these babies also enjoy leafy vegetables, they tend to enjoy a more carnivorous diet. So, you may feed them with insects, plants, and fish. Baby turtle food rich in nutrients is also ideal to add to their daily meal.
A sudden change in your pet’s appetite and/or eating habits should prompt a visit to your animal hospital Michigan City, IN.
