I hate to say this but...... but the only choice left is a shrink. A shrink. Yes shrink the food and it will eat. Lighten up people the poor guys not hungry. Period.

Linda I have a baby one year old about the size of yours, he ate all summer, the last four or five weeks he stopped eating, Four or five weeks ago it was seventy and eighty degrees out but he wasn't eating. I didn't panic, he didn't panic and he's still running around swimming and chasing the other turtles and he dosen't hibernate. He's in the house swimming and doing turtle things but he's not eating. He looks happy I can see his little face and he's happy proabably because I'm not trying to get him to eat. The three other babies look at him and start running around too but they don't eat either and their happy, I know I'm happy knowing I did all I could.

I love my little turtles but I draw the line to putting "IV's" in their little wrists.

As I said at the onset lighten up.
Will post photos latter in the week
