How long have you had your turtles @mikedd ? How many? Aquatic or land turtles?

Hi guy's my question is at what point should i stop feeding my turts for the winter ?

What kind of turtles? Are they outside or in an indoor tank or habitat? For the most part, reptiles will stop eating when the biological cues tell them that it's time. Mine are box turtles which are terrestrial and not semi-aquatic, but there are similarities. When the seasons change and it's time for them to brumate for winter, they will instinctively stop eating [and box turtles will slow down on their protein intake]. I would suggest that you continue to feed but stop when the turtles stop eating.
