∙ 13y agoBaby water turtles probably will not eat many vegetables when young, but it's best to keep offering so they get used to the idea.
Staple vegetables are: dandelion greens, green/red leaf lettuce, turnip greens.
You can also offer: carrots, sweet potato, romaine lettuce, kale and squash.
Fruit is not a natural part of the water turtle diet, but a little mango, papaya or cantaloupe can be given (meat only, no seeds or skin).

How do you get a baby painted turtle to eat fruits and vegetables?
One reason why your baby turtle will not eat because newly-acquired turtles may be shy and may not eat at first. They are more likely to eat if you do not watch them so this is one case where you would not try to watch them eat, if you want-try walking away from wherever they are kept and come back to wherever they are kept in like 3-5 minutes. Your turtle also needs to be fed in water because painted turtles are aquatic and they have special tongues that only allow them to swallow food under water.
