: My tort wouldn't eat dry food liks carrots, lettuce,green beans and such
: but I went to the pet store and got some caned tort food and put it in with
: her other stuff and she ate it up I was wondering if torts like their food
: mushy or will she start eating food that doesn't have to be muched(sounds like I am talking about a baby :})

You might want to try mixing a salad for your baby Russians.
For my hatchling Sulcatas and Leopards, I mix in a food processor red leaf and romaine lettuce, carrots, cantelope, and sometimes some strawberries and apple. They love it and they can't pick out their favorites.

Cheers.
