Kind of Turtle Food That is Bad for your Pet

For making your turtle care simpler ,i will try to present in this editorial some turtle foods that you ought to seldom feed.

Prohibited foods
- If your turtle is a vegetarian then you should not feed meat. This would be bad for their metabolism.

- It is usually recommend to feed any vegetarian food that it is not poisonous for the human. Spinach is of the plants that you should not feed. The spinach has a high concentration of oxalic acid which prevents calcium absorption. So i recommend you not to feed or to feed seldom. The same issue appears for rhubarb and chard. Also seldom feed rhubarb leafs because they are poisonous.

- Any processed meat like pork, bacon, sausages is bad for your turtle feeding.

- When you cook something for you i don't advise you to give it to your turtle because they are to salty and fatty.

- Seldom feed raw chicken or turkey because there's lots of chances for the salmonela to appear.

There's also some food that you can feed to your turtle but rearely.

- Canned cat or dog food it is nice but it is overweight and it contains to much protein.

- you can feed Lettuce and celery but i can tell you that they don't have any nutritional value.

- you can include in your turtle feeding some beef, chicken or other meats that humane eat but give them only cooked.

The best way for you and you turtle is to find an exact food mix that will provide the pet the resources he require without harming them. In case you won't feed the foods i have listed than you ought to have no turtle care issues when it comes to feeding
