So our tort is around 16 months now and had never shown an interest in grass, but I have relentlessly sprinkled grass pulled from the yard on his greens and grape / hibiscus leaves etc. I always included some with his once a week mazuri feedings too. Well about a month ago I started to notice more and more grass in his poop, and sure enough, over the past week Ive witnessed him multiple times just going to town on the lawn. It's like he suddenly realizes what this stuff is he's been tromping through for almost a year and a half.
Just posting this to say 'don't give up!' I would see the posts saying they should be eating grass the majority of the time and I would always think, yeah right hes just not interested! But it suddenly clicked, so stick with it. Chop it up, sprinkle it on, mix it in, whatever. Eventually the acquire a taste for it!
