Right on, glad to have some back up that I'm doing good by him, I have been researching and studyingand soaking up everything I can here to make sure I'm being a good tortoise mum! :tort:;)
Right?? There is not a bit of anything in that particular sample to indicate that it is indeed, a poo. I am quite happy with the fact that they aren't smelly and loose and/or watery, because he's starting to leave more and more of these little packages about, and I don't necessarily get them...
I find it interesting that it just looks like a wad of grass, makes me wonder if any nutrients are being absorbed if it comes out practically intact? The succulents and weeds and such aren't identifiable in his droppings, so that's good I suppose.
That's generally what they look like every day, and he usually poops twice. His urine usually is clear and has soft white globs, but I understand that's normal?

Hoffy has been eating only grass, succulents, and other backyard goodies for quite awhile now, and I know others are proud of their tortoise poops, so I wanted to see if I had good ones too!:p:p
Not sure if this is totally relevant or not, but I always anticipate a not so polite, nearly chastising reply from a member. Like...I figure no matter what I say, that person will have something to say that is probably right on point, but gets lost in the superior, impatient tone it's written.
Oh, and they weren't seeds from a Chia Pet kit, who knows what they might be treated with, they were from a seed package at the garden shop, next to the lettuce varieties.
