I tried to feed my meter with some mazuri every week.. but it seems that he doesn't like it very much, every time I serve mazuri he will smell it and walk on it.

Should I stop giving him mazuri? (I already try mixing with some greens that he always have)

Not all torts like it. If yours won't eat it, you can try offering it mixed into his greens. They don't need it so you don't have to give it to him. But if you want to, just mix it in a little bit at a time.

Yeah slowly mix it into food he likes. He will most likely get an accidental bite of the mazuri and history after that

mine love it when I "mash" in strawberries or open a jar of carrots into it when it is soaking.
I remember a thread about mazuri "meatball" recipe on this forum.

They don't need Mazuri. It is optional. Not all torts like it.

The link to the Tort meatballs (designed to get get hay eaters to eat hay) is in my signature below this post.

This may sound like a foolish question, but do you soak it first?
