Hello everyone,
I just got a baby red eared slider from a family friend who bought it at a carnival for the kids and decided she couldn't keep it after hearing about the maintenance costs... Since I already have a set up for my 6 month old YBS I took the baby ... As of right now I have it in a separate set up because this baby is tiny ... It's egg tooth just fell off yesterday and I'm assuming it's about 2 weeks old at most... My problem is that it is not eating I tried everything from baby turtle pellets of various brands as well as live shrimp dried shrimp and dried krill and it won't even come close to the food!! Anyone has any ideas ? Also it sleeps maybe 5 times a day I'm assuming it's normal because it's still a baby? ... Other then that its active .... Does anyone have any ideas on how to raise this baby and when can I put it I. The tank with my YBS ???
