Hi! :-)

No, he/she has no shell pryamiding at all.
I feed him Musterd Greens, Grass, Carrot, Squash,
Green beans...and Ocasional apple, grapes & rose pettels. (Any other sugesstions?)

Also, when he's in his cage, he seems pretty "board." Like today, He was sleeping in his cage so I woke him up. When I took him out of his cage to "play", I soaked him in about 1/2 in of luke warm water. I put small pieces of cuttlefish bone & musterd greens in the water.
He chased them around for a while and seemed to be having "fun". He was really alert and active.
After I put him back in his containor, he when right back to sleep in his flower pot.
Is this normal winter behavior?
Sorry for all the questions...I just want to make sure I'm doing things right for my little tort. :-) Thanx!
