I have a light weight and seldom eating RF. I've read up on the matter and see that I may just have a picky eater, however, this being a new tortoise without a known history, she could also have parasites. I have a supply of food grade diatomacious earth. I know that even humans use it on themselves for parasites. My thinking is that it wouldn't hurt to use a small amount in some wetted Muzuri since it's all my new tort will even nibble on. The questions are: Who has tried this in the past and dosage amounts/intervals. It's possible that this will not work anyway because so far, she has been able to detect traces of other things (foods) in her mazuri and she walks away from it. Thanks for your expertise.
