:My RES and pignoseds (very easy to raise if you keep them separated!)eat cuttlebone but my softies and snake neck dont eat, so how can i give calcium supplements to them?Does the regular turtle pellets have enough calcium?I dont think so, because although i raise my turtles outdoors my snake neck is not growing as it should grow.

If You go to Petco or petsmart, you should be able to find a calcium supplement that you can add to water, you could even use the calcium supplement they have for reptiles drinking water(the latter might run you a little steep tho). Good Luck, --Nick
