We would probably all agree that nothing compares to FRESH ingredients, even (or especially?) when it comes to our torts. I am wondering, though, if it would be safe to feed them canned fruits or vegetables?
I am in serious need of a trip to the grocery store, and this morning found myself without anything within 'Flash's' normal diet except turnip greens (which he HATES, lol). So i opened a small container of cut up peaches, and that was his meal.
I buy my fruit in water or natural juice, NOT in syrup- it seems to me that the syrup wouldn't be good for anyone, human OR tort. Vegetables are usually canned in water, i just worry about the sugar content of the fruits.
Does anyone else feed 'fast food' like this, on those days when you don't have time to cut up and prepare a meal, or find the cupboards empty?
