I believe the last few posts point out that RFs unlike many other torts due have a significant animal protein intake after the hatchling stage. In my eyes this shows that RFs have different dietary requirements than is acknowledged by many.

I have started tossing freshed killed culled turkeys into the redfoot and box turtle pens and they go nuts fighting over them. Also, when my dogs find and kill animals such as rabbits and such, I toss the remains in the pen and those are also eaten with gusto. Can't say my torts do not get their protein intake. LOL
