Approved plant list

[tortdad]

I can't seem to find that link to the Uk page where you can type in the name of a plant to see if it's safe for your tort to eat. I'm trying to see if purple fountain grass is safe for my Sulcata.

I would also like to see what you guys think of planting blue agava Catus in my tort enclosure. It has some rather long and sharpe spines so if I do plant them in there I'd be putting them in raised up pots or something.

What do you guys think?

You mean the tortoise table? Yeah that's an awesome site!

Keep in mind that their list is extremely cautious and some plants that are listed as toxic are not. I would cross reference with the other lists.

Any alternative lists you recommend?

I usually just Google "(plant name) tortoise edible" or switch out 'edible' with 'toxic'.
