Hey guys , sadly the breeder I got my tortoise only fed him lettuce . He is very much addicted to it . I have been shredding the leaves and lettuce very tiny and mix , he etats until he can find lettuce in it . My question I blend the lettuce , leaves and weeds and feed it to him ? Would that work ?

Yes, you can try to use blender or food processor to blend it all together. Other option is to put only lettuce leaves in blender and then pour the puree over chopped weeds and leaves - tortoises don't lick, but bite so this could work as well.

Just be sure that as he takes to the leaves better, you use less and less of the lettuce until you don't have to use the lettuce at all to get him to eat the leaves, etc.Thank you @Alex and the Redfoot ill try blending lettuce and pouring over technique first

Yes , will keep a check on that , and reduce the quantity slowly
