Turtle size 4 inches
Turtle habitant indoor 20 gallon soon to be in a 40 gallon
I don't have a schedule down for Ranger yet but i kinda pieced one together.
Sunday-Saturday Pellets 1-2 days of a few crickets and worms
The days i try to give him vegetables i leave the lettuce/carrots and other veggies in there for him to eat if he does not eat them then it turns into one of his off days.
It sucks that he hates vegetables cause i don't know how to get him the nutrients that the veggies give to him through other foods other then his pellets which i would hate for him to get stuck on. He hates his jello shots i even tried dipping the veggies in tuna water.

Okay well if I want to do it every other day, how many pellets should I be giving? 10?steve wrote:Karawr wrote:Question: how many pellets should my RES be getting considering age/size?

That amount is for hatchlings (under one year old). You can do it every other day or twice a week... up to you.
