Hi folks,
I have a brand new baby red-foot named Squash about 3-4 months old. Took initial measurements of 47 grams and 5.5 cm in plastron length. My question today has to do with diet: how often should I be feeding a young tortoise? I fed Squash a palm sized amount of spring mix/mazuri yesterday. There is a lot of conflicting material online about how often and how much I should be feeding a young tort. Many people say every other day. Others say three times a week and some people say everyday.
What is your "right" formula?
