I have bought a Horsefield Tortoise which the lady in the shop thought was about 6 months old, his shell is about 2.5 inches long, cutest little guy! Please can I get some advice on what to feed him as well as how much and how often. I've read so much info which contradicts itself, feeling very overwhelmed.
I have bought from the supermarket some watercress, lambs lettuce, green and red multileaf, courgette and carrot. So far I have only fed him a little courgette and the lambs lettuce which he wolfs down, is there anything here that I shouldn't be feeding him? I picked some dandelion flowers for him yesterday but he didn't touch them. Any extra suggestions on food would be really appreciated!
Also have put a cuttlefish bone in with him which he hasn't touched, maybe I should get calcium powder instead, best brand to get in UK?
Thanks in advance!
