So I'm picking up a new turt today.
Now, my question is as follows:
She's been fed nothing but goldfish for the last few days (grumble at petstore), so I'm wondering if I should just feed her veggies in her first few days here, or try giving pellets to get her comfortable?
She's an adult, so she doesn't need as much protien...

(Will post picks asap :))

Personally, I'd offer veggies. She probably won't eat anything until she's comfortable in her new environment anyway.
