I feed my tortoise everyday. They always look hungry. If I don't feed them, they will eat the mat, eat the substrate and eat everything they can eat.
But from some articles online, it said we don't need to feed tortoises everyday. If we feed them every day, they will be overfed and their shell pattern will have some problem (like the growth line in each scute of Sulcata will be curve instead of straight line in the square) and some other disease like human's "rich man disease" if we have an expensive diet and have a heavy burden to their liver and kidney
