He gets fed Mesclun Mix from the supermarket, plus dandelion leaves, and other assorted greens.
We have some tortoise chow that we give him now and then.

When we soak him he does his duty now and then, but now that I think about it, not as much as he used to. With the reptile bark in the enclosure it is hard to tell if he is going regularily. With the calci-sand you could tell.

Tonight I am going to make the enclosure half sand/half bark. Maybe that will do something. My sister-in-law has tortoise's, I will ask her advise in the AM. I tried to call the shop where I bought him, but they must be closed.
