Eating Machine

[turtletania]

I have a hatchling (about 2 months max i think) who just seems to eat more than my others (who are 10 and 12 months).... is this a sign of anything... or is Tiny (sorry dont know sex yet - but we call it Tiny) just a REALLY good eater?
Poo/bask/wonder/etc all normal and same as the others.

Advice?

I'd say "growth spurt", but I am only a novice keeper, so I'll bump your post back to the experienced and the experts.

Its a good sign and if he/she stop eating thats the time you should start to worry

ok thanks....i am worried about another I have cos he (i think) has stopped eating... but that is a Snail Eating Turtle. He was eating well for a few months, but as of 2 days ago has stopped. So i am worried for that one.

Good luck with your snail eating turtle. They don't do very well in captivity.
