Feeding and Nutrition :: Baby Turtle wont eat anything but pellets

[Kittykat92]

Well my subject pretty much explains it, but my turtle is almost 1 1/2 inches(I do have it legally) and I've had it for a little over a month and it wont eat anything other then pellets. Is that ok? Or what should I do?

Here's a section on enticing eating:

when they're little they tend to gravitate to high protein foods but they should start on the veggies as soon as possible. My turtle would eat fresh basil long before he'd touch any other green thing. Now that he's four, he'll eat most anything.
