Zoo Med Aquatic Turtle Micro Pellet Hatchling Food, 1.6 oz

Welcoming a baby turtle home is exciting, and you want to start their feeding routine off right. Zoo Med's Aquatic Turtle Micro Pellet Hatchling Food is made for exactly that moment, with tiny pellets shaped for tiny mouths. This 1.6 oz size is a tidy starter amount, perfect for trying it out or feeding a single hatchling without committing to a larger supply.

What makes this micro pellet right for your hatchling:

• This is the micro pellet size, made small to suit hatchling and juvenile aquatic turtles.
• The Hatchling formula is higher in protein to accommodate the rapid growth rates of young aquatic turtles, as Zoo Med describes it.
• Zoo Med says each formula is scientifically formulated to meet the dietary requirements of aquatic turtles at each life stage, so your baby gets food matched to its age.
• The pellets float, making it easier for aquatic turtles, who prefer eating at the water surface, to locate their food.
• Floating food lets you watch your hatchling rise up to eat, so mealtime is easy to keep an eye on.
• Made in the USA, a label detail many turtle owners appreciate.
• The 1.6 oz size is a convenient smaller amount, handy for a new owner or a single young turtle.
• Part of a three-stage lineup alongside Growth and Maintenance Formulas, so you have a path forward as your turtle grows.
• A purpose-made hatchling staple helps you build a steady, age-appropriate feeding habit from the start.
• Zoo Med calls this the #1 aquatic turtle food that has gone natural, which is the brand's own description of the line.

Starting small can be the smart move when you are just getting to know your new turtle and its appetite. This 1.6 oz size of Zoo Med Micro Pellet Hatchling Food gives you a manageable amount of a recipe built for early, rapid growth, with micro pellets sized for little mouths and a floating design that keeps surface feeding simple. Watch your hatchling come up for each meal, and as it grows into the next stage, Zoo Med's Growth and Maintenance formulas are there to carry the routine forward. It is an easy, sensible first food for your baby aquatic turtle.
