Hi there all, so I was able to finally get a sulcata, unfortunately the little guy doesn't seem interested in eating.

I have a vet appointment next Tuesday lined up, but am at my wits end now and am kinda nervous.

I've been soaking him for 15 minutes a day, offering him a chance to roam around outdoors for at least an hour daily (when I move April 1st he will have free reign of the backyard), but he won't touch the grass... doesn't even seem interested.

I also bought some tortoise diet from the store, nothing. Tried some fruit, nothing.... what do I do?

Thanks,
Ryan
