Food and general care!

[TerryTurtle]

I have had my baby since Christmas, Terry is just over a year old and is a very lively tortoise I would just like some advise on what foods Are best for him? Should I soak him daily? And what kind of things are best to put in an indoor enclosure? Thank you!

Hi, and welcome to the Forum!

We have a nice care sheet for Hermann's tortoises here on the Forum, and it includes some foods you should be offering your tortoise. Here's a link to it:

Lots of dark green leafy vegetables, edible weeds, and cactus pads (chopped, if a baby, whole cactus pads if larger) are a good basic diet.
