General Care Discussion :: Leaving my turtles for a few days

[Sniffa]

Come july 4th im going to be gone for 2-4 days.

Do i need to buy one of those auto feeders i see at some pet stores or should i just find someone to take care of them while im gone?

You might as well just find someone to check in on them. I prefer to do that in case a filter malfunctions or something.

Me personally, if I'm gone for 3-4 days, I usually just give an extra piece of lettuce before I go, and a big chunk of cuttlebone. But I've got two adults. Hatchlings need more attention, and I think 4 days might be pushing it. If you can, it'd be great to find a neighbour or friend that's willing to stop by even every second day.
