i fed my Painted turtle ReptoMin and worms for almost a year, then it went 3 or 4 months with out eating anything!
i thought for sure he was a goner, but he started eating ALOT! the last 2 or 3 days :)
Now I don't know if that is normal or not, it started just b4 winter, so i thought he was in Hibernation ,but it is still winter so I'm not sure why he stopped / started eating again.
and I'm not sure but i think he may have been eating small stuff /like kinda filter feeding during the time that it did not seem like he was eating.

How long can a painted turtles live without eating?
Painted Turtles are semi aquatic. They are happy to swim, but they also need to come out of the water to bask under UVA/UVB light and completely dry off. Because they do not have saliva, they also need water to eat in or they won't be able to swallow their food. If you need a basking platform for your turtles to bask on, you can head over to a local pet store and find one or check out an online store for a discounted price.
