    Is this a good staple?

    I've read the food item articles here on the tortoise forum. The stressor has been trying to find the items on it!! For their "Im in a hurry" meal,Here is what I have been feeding my sulcata and leopard tortoise hatchlings: finely chopped mixture of 1 part collard greens, 1 part shredded...

    DIET FOR SULCATAS! NO WAY!!!

    I agree. It was so confusing! Even my coworker, who recently started a tortoise rescue, gave me information on diet that contradicted the tortoise forum. I stick to the tortoise forum now... but at the beginning, tortoise diet felt like a huge frustrating mystery. Felt like hit or miss if I was...

    I thought I had the whole area perfect, with only grass and a small pile of leaves to play in, but a strange berry/seed thing was missed, or it may have blown in on the wind?? (only explanation I can think of!) Either way, leave it to Cerce to find the hazard! She swallowed it whole, and I'm...

    Skin Staining?

    Lol! Will try the gentle toothbrushing tomorrow during soak - just put him away for the night. I think you are right though - most likely just food and dirt stains :)

    Double check my weed ID?

    That's a good idea - if nothing else it'll get it out of my tortoise's reach!
