I have a large male yellow foot who is very friendly and will eat from my hand. I am having an issue getting him to eat anything other than flowers and fruit though. He won't touch tortoise diet, and has zero interest in protein sources be it wet cat food, and I even tried dog food just to see. I acquired him as an adult (Farm bred) probably just WC zero pyramiding and healthy appetite.
I have a female red foot in the same outdoor enclosure and she will eat everything. I am wondering if there is any reason I should be trying to get him to eat some by maybe hiding some in a hibiscus flower? Or is he getting the d3 from the sun? Also any tips for getting him to eat the tortoise diet?
I have heard no animal protein can cause issues and this is my main concern. Any input appreciated.
