General Care Discussion :: Going out of town

Taking care of your turtle's overall health.

Hi. I have two baby turtles. I will be going out of town for about 3 days. They have in their tank currently feeder fish, ghost shrimp and water plants that they love to munch on. Will they be fine with these types of food or should I have someone come by and feed them every day? I only feed them a few pellets once a day anyways so I'm hoping they will be fine eating live food. Thoughts?

Do you have the lights on a timer?

Would it be hard to have someone check in on them twice a day (morning and evening)?
