Hi, and welcome to the Forum!

Since he's outside, does he graze on weeds and grasses? Maybe he's just not hungry.

Instead of kale, which should only be a small part of a desert tortoise's diet, try giving him some endive, escarole, raddiccio, turnip greens, nopalitas, etc.

Hello and welcome, neighbor...have you tried anything else? It has been really hot here lately.. my sully dug a burrow, so she hides in there most of the day to stay cool...

Welcome to the best forum for awesome education and cool people so we can all be better keepers. The desert tortoises are treasures. Every one who has one is lucky and blessed. Your lil JD for Jack Daniels (LOL) is a cutie. : )
