Can my pond turtle eat baby shrimp from the grocery store?

Question

I don't have time to go to town today and buy dried crickets. I need to buy something for the weekend for my pond turtle. Besides lettuce, what can I get her from the grocery store. She likes dried shrimp from the pet store..Will baby frozen shrimp work?

Answer 1

Yes, but those arent the healthist food for a turtle. There probably filled with perservitives and othe spices. Look around you yard, you should be able to find some bugs.

Answer 2

Shrimp are fine but expensive. The best supermarket food is liver (any kind). It's like feeding them a super-vitamin pill. Skip the head lettuce, though. Adult turtles might appreciate the dark green leafy lettuces, though.

Answer 3

yes thats cool as long as she gets her regular food fish and greens..soon

I have had my 2 for 36 yrs and they eat goldfish and minows for the calcium and thier greens.,
