Try varying what you feed them. Live guppies can be stressful because the turtle has to catch them before he can even eat. Try earth worms (the smaller ones, because you have babies), frozen shrimp, and make sure to include vegetation, like romaine lettuce. Commercial turtle food is good, but only if it's 25% of your turtle's diet.
I feed my big adult slider trout food, along with crickets or worms and veggies. It looks like normal pellets but it's actually the same stuff they feed trouts at fish farms which have a lot of nutritional value. He loves that stuff.
