Hi TFO,
As I read more and more about Mazuri and other pellet diets, I get more confused. I did some research on old TFO posts but mostly people inquire about where to buy the stuff. Anyhow, I have not fed Squash any Mazuri and I will mix in some ZooMed forest tortoise diet 2 or 3 times a week, but it's hard to get him to eat it.
It seems like Mazuri is like tortoise crack. They seem to love it. Wouldn't the goal of any keeper be to try and avoid processed, man-made diets completely? I'd really like to hear how more experienced keepers incorporated Mazuri/pellet diets into their tortoise(s) diets.
Personally, I would try to avoid feeding any one thing too much and that's what I feel pellet diets aim for. But that's just my opinion.
