Hi! So I was taking Rosie out for a little outside time. Well I was watching him and I look away for a second and it looked like he ate a small rock! I don’t really know what to do! Is this harmful??

Not a lot you can do, ensure fresh green veg and regular soaks to encourage hydration and hopefully it will pass through. If you tortoise is suffering then you will have to get medical help. Ensure outside and inside is stone free as they see it as yummy food!

What do you feed your tortoise, and what is your calcium supplementation routine?
