Hi guys,I'm a 18 year old Chinese from Malaysia and just got myself 2 turtles this Sunday...found this website via wiki (I think) and I hope to learn from you guys to help my turtles grow healthily.

I'm not sure what's their age but their shells are about an 1 inch 1/2 long. Currently one of them seems to be having issue but I'll post it on another section.

Hi. Your turtles are really cute. I've learned that they prefer warm, clean water as babies. Are they eating OK?

Errm,I think so. I feed them turtle food and sometimes vegetable. They aren't eating a lot. They chew a bit then ignored the food. I'm not quite sure what to do.

Our babies have always been slow to eat. But as long as the water is clean and warm enough, they should come around and eat soon.
