Common musk turtles can eat snails, clams, crayfish, crabs, earthworms, crickets, fish, and bloodworms. Here are some feeding tips.

1. Feed young turtles more often
2. Feed when the turtle is in the water so that the turtle can swallow easily
3. Feed the turtle as much food as the turtle can eat in 10 to 15 minutes.

The Common Musk Turtle (Sternotherus odoratus) is not a crossbreed, but a native turtle species. With an oval shell, this turtle walks on the bottom of a pond or river, not swimming like other types of turtles. In addition, one of its unique characteristics is that it can spray liquid with a very pungent foul odor.
