My Russian tortoise execretes a relative large amount of white stone-like stuff when I soaked it yesterday. I did some research and it looks like it is urinary stones and it may be caused by the oxalic acid in the greens
The Russian doesn’t like to eat and doesn’t eat any tortoise food, no matter Mazuri, Zoomed or some tortoise food made by some breeder privately.
I feed it with Nopale Cactus, Dandeleon Greens mixed with hay powders. Sometimes I also give me Mustard Greens, Chicory Endive, Turnlip Greens and Kale
Anybody has any ideas of the Oxalic Acid in those vegetables? I heard Nopale may have high Oxalic Acid?
Can you recommend some greens with low Oxalic acid I can buy from regular grocery stores?
