So im pretty new to being a tortoise mommy, i got my baby boy when i moved into my aunts house in july because i was lonely. I feed him only veggies, not the stuff he couldnt have of course like the iceberg lettuce and everything. i spent days searching up foods he could have and i always make sure he has a variety of foods. Well he ran out of food and i decided to switch to a new food. Its a tortoise food that my small town family owned pet store sells and it has pellets and little veggie pieces and dried hibiscus flower petals in it. Your supposed absorb water into it for 3-5 minutes to make it soft. I think it smells fantastic and would be interesting to him but he refuses to touch it and i dont have any more of his old food to mix it together and his mixing his old food in with it would be difficult and awkward due to his old foods texture and size. How can i get him to eat it?
