Cute! I always thought a slider could only eat underwater. Very disciplined with not biting fingers! I'm pretty sure mine wouldn't be so restrained. He knows the difference but when he's really hungry gets a bit too excited to care ;_;

Yeah I'm not a turtle owner, but I was surprised at the level of constraint.

And I'm subbed because: very much cute!!

Correct, but this isn't a slider. Looks like a painted wood turtle., a species that mostly lives on land.

I have read in number of places it is not good to feed turtles spinach leaves. If that is spinach your feeding the turtle, kinda looks like it. Do you know anything about this? I'm no expert but wasn't sure if you've heard this or not?

Rarely do I ever have to tell a turtle, "hey, slow down buddy!" but damn, he flew through that leaf like a champ ^_^
