I'm not sure what their names are but I would say that only "weeds_1" is edible.Looks like sowthistle leaves to me.I think other plants are not edible but hopefully someone here could give more information.

I agree with Lolly most of the weeds in 1 look edible.

Lovely photo of your tort drinking - why dont you get him a wider water bowl? with lowish sides that he could completely sit in?

They like to get in & soak with the added advantage they tend to do their business in there, so would keep his surroundings cleaner. (You could place it on a towel to dry his feet on way out) Does he live loose in your house? or is that just an occasional thing?
