Kinda gross but I have caught my sulcata eating dog poop!!! has anyone else seen there tortoise do this and is it normal. I live in california and since it has been so nice my tortoise is loose in the yard she eats grass and the veggies from the garden all day and has full acess to food and water at all time. WHy would she eat dog poop. I pick it up three times a day but I think my tortoise runs over to it as soon as they go.
back ground on her she is aprox 4 years old five pounds and getting bigger every day. she was rescued from a home at 2 years old by me that kept her in a 10 gallon tank and only feed her carrots and regular lettus. she was only 4 inches when I got her and she has more the tripled since then.
She is outdoors all summer and in a lg tortoise enclosure with uvb and heat in the winter
