Baby Reptomin pellets , are the best thing you can give her. I know many people who only feed their water turtles Reptomin. My son is one of them. Ocassionaly he will give her a worm for protein. There are lots of people who tell you to give them a veriety of foods, but there are also a lot of people who only feed their water turtles Reptomin. As long as she eats that don't worry. I scoop up duckweed from a local pond. You can send away for water plants on the net. I usually order from WilliamTricker.com My turtles nibble on the roots, but that's it. The duckweed the eat. Believe me as long as she is eating the reptomin she will be fine. I have a little Southern Painted that will eat nothing else but pellets. She is just starting to eat a little dried shrimp. One thing they all love is worms.
