Answer 1

yeah i think its ok i tried it they were healthy

Answer 2

NO. If a turtle were to eat a mushroom, it would get a parasite(99 out of 100 will). Some mushrooms are poisonous to turtles(not the kind found in foods). I don't recommend you feeding the turtle mushrooms. I am 100% sure.

Answer 3

What kind of turtle? Box turtles, for example, routinely eat deadly mushrooms and are not affected by it- in fact, the toxins taint the meat and kills whatever tries to eat the turtle! many tortoises also eat a wide range of mushrooms and fungus without harm.

Most turtles are smart enough to not eat anything that is going to harm them.

However, if you are not sure, don't risk it, and if you cannot positively identify the mushroom, you are obviously not sure.

Answer 4

only if you want to kill them...but I doubt that they would eat them on thier own unless you forced them. The lawn mushrooms (little brown or white grow in a 1' section kind) are mildly poisonous to humans, but deadly to bunnys (don't really know the effect on turtles...just bunnys (or at least a bunny...had one, mushrooms grew up threw cage, rabbit ate them...dead rabbit))

Answer 5

Can Turtles Eat Mushrooms

Answer 6

No Way,
Keep them away from them, they could be poisonous.
Its not worth loosing your turtle.
Just keep them picked out of your grass.
But try not to touch them with your bare hands because if they are poisonous. The poison could be absorbed through your hands and it could even make you sick.

Answer 7

No, do you want to kill your turtle?
