They're Eating!!!

[AnthonyC]

Okay so maybe I was just being a nervous torto-pop but they've finally started eating. I sprinkled some calcium powder w/vita d on some broadleaf plantains and they're absolutely pounding them down! Thank goodness for local weeds! Crisis averted! Thanks for all the advice TFO!!

Yay! Glad to hear it!!

Always a huge relief moment when they start eating!

Rob, I was so excited just to see them chomping away that taking pics was the last thing that came to mind! I still have a few concerns about the "elasticity" of their shells so I'll def keep up the calcium supplements. We can't all be as lucky as you Rob and have MONSTER TORTS

I'm just excited to see these guys! I'm glad they are eating. Now watch the other end for pooping.

Pooping is definitely not an issue! Pooping in the water bowl... pfffft how lazy.... It's like us pooping in the tub! HAHA!
