Hello,
I have a juvenile Hermanns tortoise that we’ve owned for about a month now. She has settled in nicely and is eating well.
I mainly feed her dandelion greens, clover, kale, romaine lettuce, bit of pepper, plantain and lambs lettuce at the moment. I have offered a few other plants from the garden such as rose, pansies and red valerian but she doesn’t seem to be too bothered by them. Is this varied enough or do I need to be foraging some more?
Also my main question is how often should I be putting the calcium and vitamins supplements into the food? Daily? Weekly? She seems to take it well with the powder sprinkled on. She has cuttlefish in with her but I’ve never seen her touch it.
Thank you for any help and advice.
