Oogway is indeed a lovely creature!! Go a little bit easier on the calcium powder. It doesn't taste good and if they taste too much they won't eat.

He'll eat it when he needs it. Sometimes they ignore it for months at a time, then you see bite marks and then it's gone. Yvonne had already warned of the danger of adding too much calcium powder: it tastes so nasty the tortoise doesn't eat enough.
