He used to eat them until I gave him Miner All. Do you know why they eat rocks sometimes?

Do I know 100% why?!, absolutely NOT! but, what I do know is that native Americans used to eat dirt when they were sick for extra minerals (because dirt is made up of broken down rock, which is composed of many minerals) that helped. Maybe, turtles/tortoises eat it because they lack certain minerals in their diet. That is my guess. Again, I am not completely sure. Wellington started a thread on this topic, you could look it up.
