Snails are a good source of calcium, but they shouldn't be the primary diet. What else are you offering? Is your new turt eating yet?

welcome! Do you happen to havepebbles in the bottom of your cage? If so then get rid of them. The turtles might eat them and that can kill them. Just a helpfull hint

sometimes it takes a while for them to eat. I leave romaine lettuce in the tank for them to nibble on along with cuttlebone

In the feeding section there is a sticky with a list of what to feed. There are quite a few options. Just be aware that your turtles might not take to veggies right away, but keep trying.
