Winter Time

[Greektort2015]

Hi all I have a baby Greek (10 months old) and living in Canada Winter Time doesn't leave much variation in diet other than spring mix. Any other things I can spice up his diet with and where I could find Mazuri in Canada or can ship to canada? He has never tried it and I'd love to try it with him.

I also just looked at my contact pic and my new pic and can't believe how much he has grown in the 6 months I've had him.

I'm pretty sure you can find/buy Mazuri from Ebay or Amazon and have it mailed to you. You'll want the regular type. Not the "L.S." version.

The Rens pet store chain in Ontario sells Mazuri. You can probably do better than spring mix at the grocery store though - mine pretty much always has collards, dandelion, endive, turnip greens, and prickly pear pads for sale.

I would also dig up and pot some of your tortoises favorite plants and weeds now, before it's completely too late. Dandelions last quite a while in a pot. My Mallow is working great for me as well. Any favorite flowers that can be potted?

Also many foods can be dried and frozen. I've started a thread that has photos and results of natural foods that I have frozen and thawed. You may find some ideas here...http://www.tortoiseforum.org/threads/these-can-be-frozen-thawed-and-retain-good-texture.128563/
