You can feed your red-eared sliders some very small pieces of strawberry and other fresh foods, but not too often and only for a treat. You can also feed them some different kinds of worms that are alive, such as earthworms, gardenworms, or bloodworms. You can get these at your local pet shop. Give these for ONLY a treat too. You can also feed them some live feeder fish such as small guppies, goldfish, and other kinds of small tropical fish. But most importantly, you have to feed them normal turtle food that are in cans. Those kinds are normally dried krill (gammarus), and shrimps. Those are high in calcium, which are very good for turtles and for their shells. You can also feed them some little pieces of romaine lettuce but do not ever feed them iceberg lettuce. As your turtle grows older, you can also feed them live shrimp. These all sell at pet shops, so you can get them easily. Make sure you feed them variety of foods. Not the same food again and again in a row. I hope this helped. Take good care of your turtle and good luck! If you need more advice, email me and I will send you an email back. My email is kate216@hanmail.net. Thanks! :)
