Answers
Answer:
Occasional Vegetables - Cucumber, Carrot, Broccoli, Cauliflower (and leaves), Parsnip, Fennel, Squash, Pumpkin. Fruit is the equivalent of junk food for a tortoise so should be given very occasionally and make up no more than 5% of their diet (strawberry, apple, pear, tomato, melon, plum, apricot).
Feeding your turtle
Turtles are generally omnivores, eating a mixed diet that includes:
Commercial turtle food: Turtles like turtle pellets and frozen or freeze-dried fish food. Offer a small amount of food at a time to avoid overfeeding or dirtying the water too much and stop when your turtle stops showing interest in your offerings.
Protein: Feed turtles crickets or mealworms or feeder fish on occasion for variety. Turtles love the excitement from a good hunt.
Vegetables: Three or four times a week, serve 1 to 2 teaspoons of dark, leafy greens such as kale, collards or mustard greens. Remove any greens they don’t eat within four hours.
