Hello everyone,
today I want to tell you a ( for me ) amazing little story of my Sulcata tortoises ( 10 months old ) and want to ask if you have had the same experience with your torts.
Yesterday they have been outside for the very first time and I was watching curious what they do. After a short while of runnig around in their new outside enclosure one of them began to eat gras !
I know they are grazers but before yesterday they never had regulary gras to eat.
I did not force them to eat gras and it looks that I am right: The natural instinct of these tortoises " tells" them to eat gras when they grow older ( and are hungry .... ) I think the other 3 torts taste and eat gras in a few day too.
Or has someone a sulcata tortoise that don`t want to eat gras ?
