Does anyone have any ideas for getting skittish map turtles to come to the surface to eat? I'm trying to feed with just floating pellets, since I can buy them in much larger bulk for my pond.
My painted and razorback musk turtles are getting comfortable enough to come get some pellets at the surface, but the map turtles still dive down and hide in the ~5' deep area of the pond. I havn't had any success yet with hanging out long enough to get the turtles comfortable to come up to the surface to eat.
