  • you'r genius!

  • @RMBolton can u make a video how to make it please?

  • woah wth thats fucking cool is it me or is it kinda red? does it get that colour from its food?

  • hey nice video , can you please tell me were you bought or got it

  • I've noticed you can manipulate your turtles color by doing these gelatin feeds. For example, red dye in a feeding cube gives your turtle a red shell/skin tone. I have read a few recipes online and am excited to start feeding him these.. I hope he takes them. Right now the only thing he goes for is goldfish, which is a habit I don't want to get into.

  • you prepare those cubes yourself? I'd be interested in the details.  I'm currently feeding my chicken necks and crawfish tails. His growth has been impressive

  • woah thats cool. Wonder if theyre available in stores..
