New shelled friend

[Obbie]

Hello all. I’ve had ?? since Sept. 2019. She’s just lovely, follows me around. She has been healthy, good eater. In the last week her stools are very runny, not watery. She has been drinking maybe a full 8 oz of water every day. She gets grasses in our yard, I’m wondering if the Mazuri I give her is the culprit. I give it to her (1/2 cup) everyday now. Any help ? She lives in the house. I give her her food and water on our deck, she does her business there, so that’s when I noticed it was runny and her urate is getting mostly clear.

Not good idea keeping your Tortoise inside.

Greetings. I really doubt that it is the Mazuri causing the runny bowl movements. Other than Mazuri, what else are you feeding?

Is your Sully getting any outside time to eat weeds & grasses & flowers & leaves & blossoms?

Yes, I have her outside to graze for an hour or more everyday. I have a some indoor plants for her. I have prickly pear cactuse. I bring her to Arizona in the winter, she’s a beautiful girl and likes me and that’s enough for me ?

She’s been outside eating grasses, lots of dandelion leaves and flowers. I go outside with her for 1-2 hours a day. I have a hibiscus plant so feed her flowers and leaves. Mazuri is just a twice weekly treat for her.

Mali ?? is back to normal BM’s, getting too chilly for outside time. Yes she has a big pool, for her hide, and sleeping. She comes out about this time, she looks for me, and our two dogs.
