well i've been tryin to feed it many things but it hasn't been eatin em. i've been tryin to give it the food i got when i first bout my two turtles (one died) and it doesn't seem to eat that. it may not be eating at all i see no pheces or however u spell it. and i see some white stuff on the back of its legs and it spends most of its time sleeping or so it seems and it may move sluggishly if the light is not turned on. gimme suggestions as to what its problem is thanx much!!!

Above is an excellent site.

above, I tried to cut and paste diet, but it is PDF and you'll have to scroll down once you access the link.

this is a very easy topic to reserch on the internet. Just type res care sheet into something like "google".

the white stuff may or may not be pee. this is in a tank of water right?
Tutles are cold blooded and will be slugginsh when cold.

Good luck with further research, and I hope your turtle has a long happy life...they can go for 30 years! (I will probably have to leave mine to my future children!!)
