So I let Lola and Derek(roommates bearded dragon) out on the patio to eat(we have aloe Vera, wheat grass, and hibiscus) and she somehow got into the bird seed and I think se ate some. I'm just guessing she ate some because when I found her she was sitting in it. What do I do???!!!

Most likely it will pass through. I'm sure they probably accidentally eat lots of seeds in the wild. I would think so anyway.

Why would you worry about that? Have you ever seen grass that has gone to seed? A tortoise eating grass would not skip over the part that went to seed. He would just chow down to his heart's content.
