Ok i've read the list of mon-sun list of what everyone feeds their turts... but it just doesnt explain what kind of veggies.. any kind? i guess what im asking is if you guys wouldnt mind letting me know what veggies is safe to feed my turtle. i just would like a nice variety of veggies for her. THANKS for all your help!

Depends on the size as well. Baby turtles are more carnivorous, and they become more omnivorous as they age. So as your turtle gets older, they'll be more interested in veggies naturally. Just keep trying different things and eventually you'll get her hooked.
