Can I give any of these to my Sulcata?

Dock leaves
Carrot leaves/tops
Pansy
Valerian - if that's how it's spelt!

Carrot leaves/tops occasionally. Pansys yes. Mine loved them. Off the top of my head not sure of the other two. But make sure they are chemical free.

Thanks for that, the Valerian I am after is called Red Valerian or more properly Centranthus ruber. If anyone can advise I'd be most grateful as I don't want to damage the littel chaps, they are only about 16 weeks at present, and very hungry!

Dock leaves..... nope full of Oxalic acid

Red Valerian.... best to avoid.... used alot in sleeping medicine effect not known on tortoises... i could do with some though lol... some do feed it on the odd occassion without any bad effects.... but its said its not readily taken.... and i'm not sure i would risk it
