Variety is the key - get to know your weeds
Just wanted to bring to peoples attention how important it is to provide your tortoise with a wide range of weeds/plants etc. In the wild tortoise would come accross hundreds of different plants, have a nibble on one then move onto the next. In captivity it is important to mimic the wild as much as possible so please do not think that providing your tortoise with dandelions every day providing an adequate diet.
If you have any questions about plants/weeds ask on here or take a picture. Here is some links to edible weeds Front page www.shelledwarriors.co.uk http://www.thetortoisehouse.com/ http://www.tlady.clara.net/TortGuide/Diet.htm#plantlist
