Turtle diets and eating habits discussed here.

I, like many a turtle Mom/Dad, have been witness to all the begging and eating and omgisthatachickeninyourmouth and I'm wondering...where does it all go?! I've looked at the diagram of turtle anatomy and no matter how much that tummy stretches I can't fathom where the food goes.

I wasn't sure which forum to put this in, so move it if it's not appropriate in this one.

Well, it goes in, then it goes out, then it goes back in ... And ultimately, it ends up as debris in the filter and tank and water.
