I am using Terry's method which is at www.turtletary.com and/or www.Redfoots.com His advice and diet is working well for a RF of about 5 years with MBD. She is now walking and doing much better. And he has pics of his breeders, hatchlings and hatchlings he has raised on his diet

Well many veggies are good, you want ones that are high in calcium and low in phosphorous. Also a varied diet is really good. To name a few mustard greens, colllard greens, dandelions(weeds are good) clover, some dark red/green lettuce-refrain from cabbage.-And no spinach(inhibits calcium absorbtion . Also hibiscus flowers and rose petals and pansy's are good as well. For fruits most berries are good peaches, plums, apples, no cucumber, all water. Seldom banana, figs are real good, strawberries most torts love strawberries.
