Not really the best for your tortoise. I've never managed to get mine to eat dried weeds. Can't be very exciting or tasty.

You would maybe better feeding pellets then but am sure the best thing would be to feed fresh weeds.

I also give mine soaked pellets a couple of times a week and nutrobal twice a week instead of calcium powder which I sprinkle every other day. Be careful with Aloe as too much will give them the runs. My horsfield ate a whole plant after I put it in his house and was a bit loose for a few days he did seem to like it tho.

are bless, i use nutribol!,

iv just squeezed and rubbed a strawberry over a couple rocks and he's trying to have a good bite lol,

if i had a garden id plant it up for him,thought id be in house by now(bloody recession) fresh weeds growing but they take time,iv offered dandelions in the past but he's not interrested, think ill head the advice and mix it with the florette ,got some dried grass on order tooand try ween him off the florette

They do eat grass.

My Ibera will eat grass when in the garden and if there is some mixed in with his weeds he will eat it but if offered on its own, cut from the garden, he takes no notice.

iv bought some for bedding anyway,im also trying to temp him into hide on a night,im gonna drill some holes in it and move it closer to his basking area as its in the cold end and don't get used.

are those chew blocks any good?

just ordered grass,cucumber & dandellion flavour pellets and a small aloe vera plant, im planning a big change to his table aswell when i get time,need to find some limestone

gonna have a look at some cacti too, is there a particular species any one's tort particulally like? and do you just make it aveilable planted

[cherylahutch]
