Grub Bag Turtle Treats, High Protein Freeze Dried River Shrimp, For Aquatic Turtles, Amphibians, and Reptiles, 12 oz

My 13-year-old box turtle, Wonder Woman, loves to gobble these tiny dried shrimp. They provide the protein and calcium she needs to keep her shell and body healthy. I used to buy Wardley's Turtle Treats, but they were discontinued and I have searched for a replacement. These come in a huge 24-ounce zip lock bag and will last her for over a year. Turtles can live up to 30 years and require tender loving care to thrive. I am happy to provide her with a quality brand of her favorite meal that is a super value in price, quantity, and nurturing food.

My turtle absolutely loses her mind over these. She will blindly run over fish in her desperate attempt to get at this food. They are far and away her favorite food. They have a pretty powerful fishy smell when you open the bag, but otherwise seem to have a very long shelf life and is a quality (supplemental) food source for aquatic turtles.

my turtles love this stuff and i didn't even pay attention to the size of the bag, but this big ol boy came and I couldn't believe it 😂 the price we pay at pet stores and wallymart is just insane. This is a great deal and im so glad i stumbled upon this!!! my turtles are pretty stoked also. 😉

My turtle loves it

Wowsers this smells badly but the ziplock helps. I was hoping for bigger pieces because we hand feed our turtles at our pond. They're a snack! We got a 5 gallon bucket and lid for turtle food and shrimp snacks. They definitely have an odor.

My 30 yr. old aquatics, a painted and a red ear both enjoy these added into their weekly rotation . I only recently began feeding them shrimp more regularly, and their enthusiasm for the shrimp is unreal! I know they don't really have expressions, but they do express by their actions and reactions to what goes in the tank. It delights them to crunch away on something nutritionally good for them, and yes the crunch is audible! 12 oz. bag lasts a good long while feeding 2 very mature and active aquatics, and not a whole lot of money to offer my guys this kind of variety. Of course it's got a smell, it's dried shrimp. It's not overwhelming, just noticable, is this a big deal? Certainly not IMO , to be expected . As in feeding dried shrimp or dried insects there's always going to be "debris," broken powdery parts in the bag, just like crumbs from cookies, I make the extra effort to glove up, use a strainer and remove the shrimp dust. In the scheme of things it is a small amount to deal with and no way around it, the nature of the natural feed you are using. I'm happy in all aspects of using this feed for my guys, and delight in knowing it's one more nutritious item, aside from other pellets and acceptable human foods they get. They're both 30+ yrs. old, in great shape and very enthusiastic for their shrimps! Great convenience to have for them, and yes very recommended!

For fresh water shrimp i was surprised to see hermit crabs and what look like starfish in the bag I found many many items that were not shrimp. Most items I put back in the bag but I also found fishing wire, fuzz, string and a good sized fish vertebrae I did not put back in the bag. The price is good for what you get but just make sure you are paying attention to what you get out of the bag.

Both turtles love them! Can't say I love the smell of them but I didn't expect dead shrimp to smell good. Turtles are happy so I'm happy.
