I've had a new baby Hermann for about two weeks now and she's never been that bothered by food or eaten that much and it's starting to concern me.
In the morning she has a soak (which is when I put her food down) and she'll completely ignore it. She's very active though and spends all day climbing and running around her enclosure before tucking herself into bed between 2-4pm.
I've been giving her a variety of things to see what she likes but she only ever has a couple of bites of dandelion leaf after ignoring the food for a couple of hours.
As I'm writing this she's been wandering around the garden within my sights for the past half an hour or so and had just starting tucking into some leaves she's found but that's the first thing she's eaten today. Could it just be a case of her being particularly picky?
I have another little escapee tort too who's currently hiding in the garden somewhere and he runs straight to the food and eat like a greedy pig.
