When we first got our Russian she was a complete pig. I actually had to make a post to see if I was feeding her too much. A few months ago her appetite seemed to have evaporated. We took her to a reptile vet, no problems or parasites. She's still active, but not as much. We've checked the temps in her enclosure and all seems good. We started hand feeding her to encourage her to eat. This worked well for a while, once she would start eating she would just continue eating from her dish. Now it seems she just wont eat without hand feeding at all. When we got her she was about 480 grams. That was November. Now in June she's around 525. She'll eat carrots, squash, hibiscus and dandelion flowers whether we hand feed or not, but spring mix, raddicio, endive, dand. greens, anything we get from the grocery store will sit and go to waste unless we hand feed. The above 'treats' we only feed sparingly (once a week or so). It's not uncommon for her to eat only 4 or five pieces of food (small leaves) in a day, and sometimes less. We bought some mazuri which she pigged out on at first, but now she is totally put off by it. I've heard it said that Russians are one of the easiest torts to care for, but I feel like I'm always worrying about her. I miss the hungry hungry tort which spawned her name. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
