There are many foods for domestic turtles, such as insects, worms, small fish, shrimps, snails, duckweeds, melon peels, wheat grains and so on. This kind of animal has a mixed diet, so it eats almost everything, and its own hunger tolerance is very strong, even if it does not eat for several months, it will not starve to death. Usually young tortoises should be fed once a day, so that they can grow healthily. Adult tortoises can be fed once every two or three days instead of every day.
