i just hatched my first ornate wood turtle !!!!!! so happy about it , its in a nice set up , it hatched on thursday last week ( 5 days ago ) and still hasn't eaten, how long do they usually start to eat ? it seems compleatly disinterested in water too ?i thought they were rather aquatic as hatchlings? ( dont worry its in a similar set up to its parents , 80 % land with a shallow dish for a pond,its parents have a much bigger water area they almost never leave )
