Things You'll Need
- Standard turtle chow for hatchlings or koi pellets
- Chlorine-free water, preferably spring water
Instructions
Fill a clean bowl with about 1 pint of clean spring water. If you are using tap water, fill the bowl and allow the water to sit out uncovered overnight so the chlorine gas disperses from the water into the air.
Drop four to six turtle chow pellets or koi pellets into the bowl of water. Allow the pellets to soak until they are expanded and soft.
Set the yellow bellied slider hatchling in the bowl of water and allow the turtle to dine on the freshly prepared meal. Remove the turtle from the feeding bowl as soon as possible after it has finished eating and return the hatchling to its normal living quarters.
