Re: Feeding female Texas Diamondbacks
A lot of my adult WC do not eat Aquamax or Reptomin. I do have a few that do. One learned from a red-eared slider that I had a long time ago. Then that one showed the male that I had her in with. After he started eating the Reptomin. I thought for sure that I could get the rest of my adults to eat the Reptomin. NOT, I move these two turtles out with the rest of my adult. After a two years of throwing Reptomin in the their tank and separate food tanks, none of them even looked twice at the Reptomin. Then one day I got some Aquamax from Chun. I through the Aquamax into the tank first the male that was already eating the Reptomin took a bite, then all of a sudden one of my older adult female floated up to the top and grab a mouth full. I was stunned. Still the other terrapins with not eat the Aquamax or Reptomin. The Texans that I just got, the two smaller females eat the Aquamax “The Brian” still has not tried it. I do notice that the younger females seem to be the least picky. Jonathan Scute Mod http://www.geocities.com/diamondbackterrapins/
