Hello everyone,
My boyfriend and I are new to owning a tortoise and new to this forum. We got our baby on October 3rd and named "him", Obi . I'm guessing Obi is a couple months old. We both adore Obi A Lot!
So far Obi has only been on a diet of organic spring salad mix but he's kind of picky, only eating the green lettuce leaves. I've tried feeding him some grass I've planted and once picked a dandelion leaf to feed him but he ignored both. We always sprinkle Repti Calcium on the lettuce. He eats a lot but I've weighed him a few times and it seems like he's losing weight instead of gaining. Is there something else I can try feeding him?
Thanks everyone!
