I have a 1 year old Russian tortoise, he is 7cm long and only weighs 59g, is this normal, and if not what can I do to get him to increase weight?
I'm not sure, as it can vary for each individual, but as long as you're giving a pile of food that is accessible all day (that doesn't run out) and he is eating well, don't stress. Maybe someone else knows if that size is normal.I have a 1 year old Russian tortoise, he is 7cm long and only weighs 59g, is this normal, and if not what can I do to get him to increase weight?
I feed him kale, romaine lettuce, dandelion leaves and sometimes the flower and any other weed I come by that is tortoise friendly. When ever I give him is food there is always some left at the end of the day.What are you feeding?
