Start pyramiding
Posted: Sat Jun 05, 2010 10:50 amI have 2 yellow belied sliders: 3'' and 3.5''
I think for a period of time I was overfeeding them - 7 pellets or more for each turtle, I wasn't even couting, just using the 15 min rule - after I removed the remaining pellets. (reason: lack of information about it- followed the information in the pellets box (2- times per day))
I have everything necessary in their tank:
Basking area: UVB 5.0 + 60 W heat
Water heater: 23 Celsius
What type of diet should I follow now? Should I feed them 3-4 pellets every other day and veggies every day? This kind of diet is the best for their size and to not increase this problem?
