What do you feed your red slider? Is there anything that your turtle likes to specifically snack on?

I freaking hate those things...box turtles ftw
I feed mine Hikari turtle pellets. She's about 7 years old now and really big. She gets a little bit of shrimp, and some greens as treats. She'll eat anything thats near her mouth really.Don't give them too many meaty foods after they're a few years old, or their shells will pyramid.
If it floats, they will eat it.
Collard greens, calcium bar thing, some baby shrimps, some commercial turtle food, trout pellets, my turtle isn't very picky. He'll eat fingers, too.
collard greens, anarchis,carrots, turpip greens, romain lettuce for snacking, rosy minnows, apple snails, reptomin, the occasional goldfish crackeronce they hit a year or two they should be eating mostly plant material
My oldest has always had a love for banana. She sometimes confuses a bit of apple for it, then spits it out and looks at me as if I tricked her. She'll still eat it, but not as eagerly.Hmm. Come to think of it, I've had her since my childhood and I'm turning 28 this year, so she's probably about 20 years old, give or take. o_O

>>285976Pyramid shell sounds awesome
It's not healthy though. It's a deformity caused by too much protein in the diet, which leaves deposits in its shell.
