Hi

Hi

My name is Sara and I am a proud owner of an African Leopard tortoise called Ralph and White Australian Tree frog called Neddy.

I live in Cornwall in the UK, and am also a member on Shelled Warriors. Not leaving them just broadening my horizons.

Ralph is 4, and although we started off wrong, due to bad advice we are now on the right track. My worst problem is getting him to eat cut grass in any form (and believe me I have tried everything). He will graze but wont eat if its pick, freeze dried, pellet form, blended, chopped, wet so it sticks to everything, timothy hay etc etc etc

Here is my Ralph:

Hello and Welcome to the Forum

 

[Torty Mom]

Welcome to TFO Ralph is a very handsome dude! I like his enclosure, looks like he has lots of things to snack on!

Welcome, my california desert tortoise is the same way, loves to graze on grass, but if I trim it and put it into his pen, he won't touch it.

Hi Sara:

Welcome to the forum!!

 

[LRBailey]

Welcome to the forum. I have two redfoots myself. When I was in Alaska I also had frogs. Aren't they great too?!

Hi Sara welcome to the TFO what else do you feed him?

 

[Neddy]

Pak choi, romanine lettuce, plantain, clover, vetch, dandelion, lambs lettuce, pansies, aloe vera (as a treat), rosso lettuce (rarely), sweetcorn (again as a rare treat).

That's during the winter then he goes out and grazes

Have also tried pellets about 9 different types now wont touch any of them

Ralph is a handsome fella! Welcome to our site. I too belong to SW (along with a few other places) and I agree, it's great for getting a broader view of things.
