As excited as Kitty about to be a bridesmaid
Afternoon,
Just been out in the garden with my tortoise Cedric, hes has a bath and been for a jolly scamp around the garden and drive, tormenting cats and ignoring all my carefully cultivated tortoise food (weeds ?) in favour of trying to eat the concrete path, bricks, stones and dog poo ? Obviously I stopped him eating the poo and small stones but let him sharpen his beak on the stones and path.
Am just wondering if his fondness for stones etc mean he is lacking something in his diet? He is only fed fresh food, this time of year mainly garden weeds and roses, in the winter salad. He gets supplementary calcium and has a cuttlefish for munching. He has some edible bedding too which he quite likes which is grass and wildflowers. He is a horsfield tortise and 5 years old
