i got my tortoise from someone on facebook who cant keep the tortoise anymore. So i dont know what kind of stuff the previous owner used to feed him.
i give him fresh leaf and few pallets every day, normally he doesnt touch any leaf. he always dive in looking for pallet then leave all the leaf to rot.
Ive done some research it said they cant eat pallet only. However ive tried all the salad mix i can find from different shop hes not interested in any of them. At a point he seems to like kale and cabbage but then i look up online some website said feeding kale or cabbage must be moderated, some website said any dark green collar green is their regular diet, which include kale and cabbage. So Im very confused.
Right now Im trying to force him to eat fresh leaf by not putting any pallet in his everyday food. However he could stop eating for days, it's almost like a silent protest. As soon as i put pallet in he finish the pallet right away.
I dont know what to do. Is it simply because he doesnt like any kind of salad mix I got him(spinach, lettuce, rocket, etc..) if this is the case would any of you recommend something i can get?
Also i know pallet should be part of their diet because they are vitamin calcium supplement. But in my case should i stop feeding him pallet for a while so he would have no choice to eat leaf?
