I have a Mississippi map turtle that I had since June of last year, and ever since I got him he has been picky with every turtle pellet brand as well as eating his vegetables. I was only able to get him to eat earth worms and freeze dried insects and blood worms that I had to dust with vitamins every two days or else he would get a vitamin A deficiency. I’ve tried a lot of types of pellets like crushed up Mazuri, Zoo med hatchling formula, and ReptoMin and he would never ever eat them, but with this food it was different, he took to eating it quickly and I am so proud and overjoyed, he has been eating this good for awhile now and he has been looking much happier and healthier and I don’t have to worry about dusting his food so often because this stuff actually has the nutrients that stopes him for having his on and off vitamin A deficiency. I believed this also got him open into eating his vegetables, I’ve been trying to get him to eat vegetables since he was a tiny hatchling and he didn’t even take a bite until I got him onto this food, now not only does he eat these amazing turtle pellets but he also eats his carrots and romaine lettuce. I wish I could’ve found this food sooner for my Mississippi map turtle,but luckily I found this food in time for my newest pet turtle who is just a tiny Florida red belly cooter, they also very loves this food. This is perfect for smaller turtles and is definitely worth the money, I also love the small spoon it comes with, makes it easier to give them the right amount of food without going overboard with the food. I will buy this again whenever my current bottle runs out.

My turtle absolutely loves this food! I've tried several different brands, and this one is by far his favorite. The pellets are a good size, so they're easy for him to eat, and they don't break apart and cloud up the water like some others I've used.​Since I started using this food, I've noticed a significant improvement in my turtle's activity levels and the vibrancy of his shell. It's clear that the ingredients are high-quality and provide all the necessary nutrients for a healthy turtle.​I also appreciate that the container is resealable, which keeps the food fresh. It's a great value for the price, and a little goes a long way. I highly recommend this to any turtle owner looking for a reliable and nutritious food option for their pet.

Amazing food for my baby turtle who was rescued. My turtle wasn’t eating for the first week or 2 after I got him, he immediately tried this food and loves it. My only complaint is baby turtles eat these pellets messy it breaks into tiny pieces. so I would recommend feeding in other container or don’t have stones or rocks as substrate bc bits of food will rot between gaps. But The pellets float way better than zoomed baby turtle food. Overall great brand healthy and my baby turtle loves it

We use Ultra Fresh food for our baby musk turtles and feed the fish food to all of our fish. All of our animals love this stuff anf each different kind of food meets the needs of your individual baby. We still need to try the shrimp pie, vegetables pie and Caradina shrimp food but I already expect it to be just a great as the other foods. It keeps the water cleaner, helps poop break down faster to get sucked up by filtration and enhances the immune system of your turtles. JUST BUY IT! :)

I bought this turtle food for my baby turtle and I’m really happy with it. The size of the pellets is perfect for small turtles, and my turtle started eating it right away. I like that it has added calcium and vitamins, which are important for shell growth.It doesn’t make the water very dirty if you don’t overfeed, and the quality seems much better compared to other brands I’ve tried. My turtle is active, eats well, and looks healthy.Definitely recommend this food for baby turtles!

I’ve been feeding this to my baby turtle, and she absolutely loves it. The floating sticks are the perfect size for her, and she starts eating as soon as I put them in the water. I also like that the ingredients seem to be high quality and made specifically for young turtles. It has become her favorite food, and I’ll definitely keep buying it. Highly recommended for anyone with a baby turtle.

I bought two juvenile sideneck turtles and they needed food so I got this. It was on sale so I figured I would try it. The pieces are tiny, so I felt comfy giving it to them considering how small they were. They LOVE this food. It is also full of all the vitamins they need. It comes with a cute little serving spoon, which my babies have learned how to eat from LOL

This is a good staple for your small turtle’s diet. Don’t forget she like’s plant stems like kale and broccoli. Sprouts are always a fun addition to the diet as well. Serve wet and in bunches. Treats of meal dried worms etc. should only make up 25 percent of the diet. “Shelly” started out the size of a quarter!

My turtles loved it. They are hatchling baby red eared sliders. They both ate it. I've tried zoo med hatchling formula turtle food but they hated that food. I saw this one on Amazon and thought I would give it a try. And I'm very happy I did because they loved it. I would highly recommend it.

I found a little painted turtle in my head about the size of a quarter. Nowhere near land. Took it in.I was worried it wouldn't eat and it snatched this up real quick. My baby turtle loves it.Seems to be digesting well.It arrives super quick and was very reasonably priced. Five stars!
