Yeah we’ve never attempted to give those to him dry, but I had some dried grass and dried dandelion and flower mix and he won’t touch it. In fact last time I attempted to give it him he pooped on it and went back to bed

To be honest other than dried food he will eat anything we give him! I have to wet any pellets but anything dry he won’t even look at[emoji23]

Brilliant! That’s where I bought it from, I’d heard different things from different people and wasn’t to sure.

Does anyone have any experience with the NutraZu pellets? Or the Zoo Med Grassland? I currently have the Mazuri but I believe what we have in the UK is actually a different pellet to the US?

Yeah I use the tortoise table all the time! It’s been a huge help since we got him, I’ve got a covered planter thing from B&Q now to that I’ve put some plants in, hoping the lid keeps the frost off them

Hi! Thank you! And oh wow yes you are! That’s brilliant thank you I’ll look into those, I have ordered some stuff from there before I believe. Thank you so much. With it being our first winter with him I think I’m just panicking.

Hi, yes I have got some of the packs from pets at home but he won’t touch any dried food so I’ll have to try your suggestion. We don’t have a green house I want to in future but we are still living with our parents until we buy our own house, can’t imagine they’d be thrilled about a greenhouse...

Hi, thanks, I have a pro rep tortoise food that is low protein and high fibre is this any good? And the redo-grass is slowly dried grass a little like hay but not as sharp. We soak him everyday and his is kept in an closed humid chamber. Thank you for all the advice.

Thanks, yes that’s where I bought his mazuri from and he lives that, but I’ve been told not to feed it to often. I have some indoor plants that he likes (aloe, opuntia) but I just can’t get him to eat this redi-grass and I don’t know what to do about that, I’m sure I’m just over reacting as it’s...

Hi, We are in the UK and got our first tortoise (leopard) in April, I am growing concerned about feeding him throughout winter and wondered what people recommend. I grow his food and forage for weeds, I try to avoid shop bought. But with harsh winters I don’t think there will be many weeds and...

Hi, ambient temperature in his enclosure is around 32-33 degrees Celsius at the moment. Basking spot is currently 55-60 degrees Celsius on the slate temperature, humidity is between 60-80% and his substrate is sterilised topsoil. It’s been like this for a few days and we’ve seen him sneeze once...

Hi, We have a young leopard, around 1 years old (119 grams) and his nose has recently started running, he’s still eating normally and pooing but he is sleeping more. We have a vets appointment later in the week and for now we’ve upped his baths and have used Reptoboost in a few of them and in...

*eating[emoji23] not saying [emoji849]

Thank you, he’s saying loads as per usual for him, he’s slept a little bit during today but it’s hard for his to escape the heat at the moment with the ambient temperature being so much higher due to the weather. First time owner so I worry a lot but thank you I feel a little better about it...

I’ve checked his temperatures and they are a little higher than normal but if I need to keep him warm that isn’t a problem, he is already soaked daily so I suppose I’ll just have to keep an eye on him [emoji22]
