Do you know what this is? Is it safe to feed my tort?

I have these growing all over. I’m just not sure what it is or if it’s safe to feed my little one.

Looks like a type of dock. It's not toxic but extremely high in oxalic acids, I wouldn't feed it on purpose but it's no big deal if he stumbles across one on accident

Thank you so much. Ive been trying to find it but haven’t been able to. I’ll just be on the safe side and keep it out of his plate

I find dock hard to identify myself. It gets easier when they start putting out flower stems, as one of yours have done. The stems get pretty high. This isn’t the same kind of dock but the flower stems tend to look similar. Look at all that clover! I’m jealous.

Look under sour dock or curly dock. And when you dig it out, dig deep. It has a BIG carrot-like root. Don't let ANY of those seeds fall off while messing with it.
