not eating all of his food

[Claireabbo]

alright so i will give frankie food that is about the size of his shell. and he wont finish it all. i hear that tortoises wont stop eating when their full. they will just keep going. is this true or does frankie stop when he gets full?

He's stopping because that is all he wants to eat.A pile as big as his shell seems like an awful lot of food.

I give tiago a bowl full half the size of his shell packed loosely with food?

well its just like leaves that are layed there. but i will start feeding him less. i did that today and im hoping it will work out fine but its good to know that he will stop when he is full... i was a little concerned if that would happen
