Tip for feeding amount, go for a small amount at first a teaspoon full, untill they are excepted and the amount can be adjusted for the tort's appetite, less waste. No other food stuff given as tortoises are creatures of habit and most likely eat the green stuff and leave the pellets, untill they can go from both diets. Two decent pelleted meals a week should be enough if greens/plants are fed other day's. Pellets can be overfed to small tort's as well as any foods.

Do you think it help if after i have moistened the pellets to spread them over the leaves/flowers of the food? or just have like 1 day weeds/veg next day pellets?

Sorry if it looks like im asking the same questions over again, i just dont want to mess it up

Cheers

Lily used to eat the T rex coloured ones but they have stood in my window for probably over a year, so not going with them now. So need something, just in case my weed supply dies out. Thanks to anyone....xx

I give pellets on their own and weeds on their own, as paul says they would leave one or the other anyway. however, with the beaphar ones I used a pepper grinder ball thing that you squeeze the handles together and crunched up the pellets, sprinkling them over the weeds then sprayed with water and they ate them, I don't need to now as they eat the t-rex ones
