## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can this be used for a baby painted turtle?**
A: If you are referring a hatchling as “baby” turtle then these pellets are too large. You need the hatchling product from this line. I feed all my turtles ( RES, Cumberland, yellow belly, etc)  from this product line. Then mixed it with shrimp or other food sources.

**Q: Sinking or floating pellets?**
A: Floating

### ⭐ bad product

it's not 1.6o first. pellets are too small, and non of my turtles interested them, i got 3

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Ottimo pellet
*by M***X on 30 August 2025*

Pellet molto piccolo, dicono che è per le tartarughe baby ma va benissimo anche per le adulte. Le mie lo adorano, come lo hanno assaggiato si sono letteralmente buttate sul restante. La prossima volta comprerò il formato più grande, sapendo che gli piace posso optare per la scatola più conveniente
