Sugar is dangerous for them

I mostly feed him greens. Occasionally I give him some fruit. When I shot this video I thought it would look a little more interesting if I gave him a variety of things to eat.

0:02 - 0:05 Imagine if they always moved at that speed, scary as hell.

I thought they are supposed to only have fruits every so often and in very small amounts?

So the tortoise likes grapes! So do I! I wanna grape now.

Did you raise it eating fruits and vegetables? I thought they were bad for sulcatas.

I liked how the music turned this into something from an action film
