Feeding Baby Turtle

Updated: Nov 28, 2022



Baby turtles are cute little creatures that need slightly different care than adult turtles. Their diets vary depending on their breed. For example, land turtles mostly eat plants, vegetables, and fruits, while water-based turtles are carnivores and would prefer to eat meat like worms, insects, and fish.


In most cases, a baby turtle diet consists of turtle pellets or gel supplements that can be bought from pet stores. Just make sure to buy the correct turtle food for your pet as there are variations that have been made for different species.


It is best to ask your vet about which product to purchase to ensure that you are getting the right one for your baby turtle. When feeding your baby turtle pellet food, you should plan on feeding it once a day. Make sure that you only give your turtle at least 15 minutes to eat the pellets.


Your veterinarian Wichita, KS is a valuable source of information about your pet diet and nutritional needs.
