Ingredients: Cornflower,Dandelion, Melissa, Plantain (leafy greens), Alfalfa, Peppermint...

So I just brought a juvenile redfoot home yesterday, got him all set up in his new enclosure, and he seems to be doing ok-ish. I was wondering how to know if he's doing well or if his behaviors are something I should be concerned about? So far he mostly just sits and bobs his head in and out...
My Redfoot tort (approx. 3 years old) doesnt seem to touch his salad on his own. However, whenever i show him and hand feed him food, he takes it and eats most things i give him.
I switch out the food after 24 hours. Heat, humidity, and light sources are all optimal. He's soaked 2 times a week...

Hello! I tried feeding my Redfoot a boiled egg once. She loved it, and gobbled it all up. However, later, she looked sick, if it's possible for a tortoise to look "green" and had dark green, messy diarrhea, and eventually vomited white eggy stuff. I researched this sight, and was relieved to...
