Hello! I was hoping this issue would go away over time and Ollie would eat everything else I give to him... except he doesn't. When I got him at the end of March, he ate everything I gave to him, which was kale, rose petals, and dandelions. He also ate mustard greens and the other grocery store greens I was only able to supply at that time. But now, all he eats is dandelions. When he's eating dandelions, he occasionally gets a bite of the other food on his slate tile but doesn't keep on eating that certain food, he only goes for the dandelion (and only the flower! He doesn't like the leaves, it seems). Hibiscus? Rose petals? Even a bit of tomato to entice him! Nope. Now my my main concern is the only dandelion I have to feed him are the 5-15 flowers that tend to sprout throughout the week and I'm afraid he'll slowly starve or something. How do I get him to eat different foods? This is especially important because he will be moving into his outdoor enclosure soon, in a few weeks since I just started building it. It has kale, mustard, turnip, and collards in one area, 2 types of california poppy (still small) a small hibiscus plant, and chicory which I just planted yesterday. He is a full-grown male Russian.
