Hi everyone,
Lately I've been noticing how my tortoise only seems to want to eat romaine lettuce or Boston lettuce. I offer him a wide variety of different vegetables such as carrots, cucumbers, dandelions, other weeds, different grasses, cactus pads, squash, kale, and more. I even give him strawberries and raspberries as treats but he will still only eat lettuce. I've tried everything!
I sprinkle calcium on his food every day but I'm beginning to worry that he is not getting enough nutrition from his limited diet. Or that something could be wrong with him.
