My Russian tortoise, Sheldon, has very loose stool, possibly diarrhea. He eats mainly kale, collards, and dandelion leaves. When I first got him (only one week ago) I mistakenly fed him a small piece of cantaloupe, but haven't given him any fruit since. He seems to have a normal appetite (I feed him as much as he can eat in 20 mins.) I THINK that his diarrhea MIGHT also be caused by one of the following, but I'm not sure:
1. 2 days ago I started spraying a calcium supplement on his food. Shortly after, his diarrhea started.
2. I took him to the park and he ate some of the grass. When I noticed him doing this I put him on my lap so he would stop.
What should I do?
P.S. I'm not sure of his age, but from what I've learned online, he's anywhere between 1.5-6 years.
Any help would be greatly appreciated
