Sorry, I didn't mean to put your back up. Just giving you information, not criticising.
I have not had it for 10 years. He seems to like how I take care of him and he seems happy.
See? both not good food for this species. They eat grass and weeds - plant matter. Fruit causes a parasite bloom and should be fed very sparingly. Any "vegetable" with seeds, such as cucumber, is a fruit. If you don't have grass for him to graze on you can buy dark, leafy greens, such as endive, escarole, turnip greens, etc. but it's much cheaper and healthier for the tortoise to feed him edible plants.I know. Thank you for the helpful advice. Finally I know what type he is. Also what do you recommend for food. He likes cucumbers and apples.
