Cost of feedings?

Spineless opuntia cactus. You grow it by sticking a pad in dry dirt. Very technical and complicated... haha

Grape vines work great in any climate. They grow in the spring and summer and go dormant through winter. A redfoot could eat some grapes once in a while, but for most species we just feed the leaves.

lol, great info, and i do believe that my grandfather down in arizona could send me some of that cactus to plant

Squash leaves and flowers are a good choice, don't feed the tomato plant itself it is toxic.

Might be able to feed the squash too, depends what you end up getting.

I will be sure to watch out for that. when he gets older, could i mow my yard, and keep the shavings and feed them to him?

Grass clippings are another good choice, my sulcata loves to chow down on the grass in his pen. I have noticed that grass seems to be hit or miss with tortoises. They either love it or ignore it.

man i would get a sulcata, but its just the upkeep cost as well as outdoor enclosure, but the worst part for me would be winter heating bills.
