Adopted from gstar awhile back and never posted any photos. Was run over by a car but is doing very well now in my yard. Absolutely loves mazuri. Eats tons of grass as well. Just wanted to share and give an update to gstar :)

I think it may be plant fibers. I will try to get photos. Anybody else have this happen?

Out in the yard. I use coco coir but only for the smaller of the two. The large one stays outside and has no access to coco coir and it does the same. They never roam inside my home only outside

Living in Southern California your main concern should be raccoons.. Years ago I had a 5" RES in a pond which got eaten. You'll need to secure the hide at night

Thank you Tom for all the help and advice. His diet will be mainly a staple of fresh grass and mazuri with variety as treats

Thank you guys for the tips and suggestions. I will try to get her to eat hay somehow. What are your opinions on mazuri? Also have your babies all eaten cuttlebones?
