1. What food is better for yellow-headed turtles to eat Although yellow-headed turtles are omnivorous animals, they prefer plant-based feed, so breeders can feed them more plant-based feed.
The more suitable plant feeds for them are vegetables and fruits, such as cabbage, cabbage, celery, cucumber, pumpkin, wax gourd, lettuce, lettuce and other common vegetables. You can also feed some apples, pears, bananas, grapes, cantaloupes and so on.
When feeding plant feed, it is necessary to clean it and try to avoid pesticide and egg residues. Before feeding, cut them into palatable sizes, which makes it easier for them to eat. Although they are not interested in animal feed, breeders should regularly feed them some small fish, shrimp, lean meat and other foods to promote their growth and development.
2. How often should yellow-headed turtles be fedThe feeding frequency of yellow-headed turtles is best determined according to their growth stage. Generally speaking, the feeding frequency will be higher in infancy, because they eat less at this stage, but they have a large demand for food, so it is most appropriate to feed them once a day. When they become adults, their appetite will increase and their demand for nutrition will decrease, so breeders can reduce the frequency of feeding, just once every two days.
