Posted: Thu Jun 05, 2008 3:05 amHi MaryR,
I think I know why you didn't get many responses - it's because people thought you were asking about a type of snail because that's the title of the topic but I think you are really asking about blueberries - the fruit.
If so, then blueberries are very good for turtles, even very small turtles. They are high in vitamin e, which helps with shedding, and relatively low in sugar (for fruit). If your turtle is really tiny, you can give him a half or whole blueberry every week or so. For a bigger turtle, you can give several blueberries at a time.
If I've misunderstood your question....my apologies. I don't know anything about a blueberry snail.

Posted: Fri Jun 06, 2008 1:14 amLOLOLOLLOLOLOL I'm soooo crazy....You answered it just fine SpotsMama...I write and think too way ahead sorry everyone. Yeah they r small and I gave each of them 1/2 a blueberry each but piglet Tuck swam and grabbed Ling Ling's B4 she could get to it. And he had stool the next day that just swirled to ifinity when I tried to scoop it with the pooper net...So I guessed he had a lil loose stool looked normal in the water but just dissolved when it came to removing it. So I just gave them pellets for a few days then added back the lettuce and anacharis, All's well today....Thanks a bunch

Where did you get the anacharis? It is illegal in Michigan.
