Created a butternut squash Hermann Monster. sigh....

My 3 month old Hermann Tortoise, Ormond, it addicted to butternut squash. Well, it isn't good for him to eat everyday so today he didn't get it. He did eat a bit of Mazuri and some kale but he seemed to just endlessly be looking for squash. He sampled a few things and was not impressed. Now he has taken himself off to bed, the little brat.

Do you think he will eventually forget his obsession??? I don't want to starve him but I can't feed him it everyday. Dear me.

Haha! That's cute! My reds are crazy about it too. I cut mine in cubes and blanche it then portion the cubes in baggies in the freezer so I have ready to eat portions in the freezer.

You could always cut it finely and mix it into other foods to get them to eat other stuff. that's what I do.

Yep, I have a russian that only wants radicchio and will rip her enclosure up to find it.

Oh dear... do you just end up giving her the radicchio? I'm so worried he is going to get sick not eating enough variety. Even when I mix it with weeds he eats around it. sigh.
