10-11yrs ago, I got my son a female Russian tortoise that has developed quite a personality.Originally Posted by zina10
or is he just telling me what he thinks about the food ??
Smeagol has 2 choices of food. Usually the Repashy he was fed before he came to me. Although I mix the mango with the "grub" one. He seems to prefer that and its on his ledge.
Then he has food on the bottom. Usually some Pangea mix.
This is the third time I find his poop in the Pangea bowl.
Is there a message somewhere ? Does he want a little toilet bowl on the bottom? Dislike the food ?
He is one funny dude !!!
When I come home I hear her scrambling to the side of her enclosure that her food dish is on. She waits, not so patiently, by the glass and I have to hand feed her a piece while I am breaking up the rest and mixing in some vitamin dust and calcium dust.
If I take too long to go to her enclosure and feed her (and what constitutes “too long” varies and is totally at HER discretion), she will climb into her food dish and drop me a surprise, while still keeping her eyes trained on the glass doors.
Is the Pangea bowl empty? If so, he may be expressing that he wants more.
If he is leaving “gifts” on top of the uneaten food, he may be expressing his most sincere and genuine request for a different menu.
