You may need to give him some time if he’s new. Keep offering other foods with the pellets. How are you feeding him? Have you tried live foods such as worms, feeder bugs or small fish? Also it will take awhile for them to eat leafy greens and stuff like that. Here’s a great care site that might have some good info on it you can use http://redearslider.com/index.html
