I have a lot of very short clover in my yard that has tiny yellow flowers. Are they safe to feed ? I haven’t had this type come up before.

Ithink they’re clover. I checked the tortoise table but couldn’t see the same kind
Ok apparently they are black medic weeds and safe for tortoise . I google lens it. Is theee a specific area on the forum to ask about edible weeds and flowers?

It is probably some sort of medick so related to alfafa. They can be fed in moderation, keeping the high protein content in mind: https://www.thetortoisetable.org.uk/plant-database/viewplants/?plant=52&c=6
Yes, we have a subsection on topic here: https://tortoiseforum.org/forums/plant-identification.54/
You don't have to repost your question, some members who are good with plants visit a forum once in a few days. I'll tag @RosemaryDW just in case
The yellow flowered are black medic and u have some white clover mixed in l. Both are fine in moderation
Ok thank you, good to know
Thanks very much!
Agreed to all: safe as part of a varied diet. Every animal needs protein.
