If the cage is in the lake, they will be fine. They will feed normally just as they do in the wild. If you feel that they need to be fed go to a pet store and get some "pond pellets". Just give them a few. Not more than 5 or 6 pellets per dozen. Keep in mind that feed will also draw other fish and turtles. So make your cage plenty stout. Good fishing.
