Default Bloodworms for my turtle

Can I feed him live ones or does it have to be those that come in those frozen blister packs?

both offer the same nutrinally that am aware off but the frozen ones are easier to keep and feed and normally cheaper when u work out what you actually get.
remember not to feed to much potien or u will end up with shell problems

hi the only problem feeding them frozen is they come in lumps best to make sure they dont swallow whole depending on the size live ones only last a day or to so maybe as a treat also try shrimps.....

I've just tried live bloodworms with my new terrapin recently and she loves them! I think the movement gets their attention. I'm glad she's eating something, as she wouldn't even sniff at the pellets or chopped carrot I gave her... she does like dried shrimp too tho. Think I'll just have to keep trying with the veggies.
