The shamrock type leaves is oxalis, very high in oxalic acid. BAD for your tortie
Are we positive that this is oxalis and not solely clovers? I have not noticed any yellow flowers sprouting from the clovers, which I believe are the toxic parts.I agree with Pearly. You have oxalis and spurge. I would feed neither to your Russian tortoise. In the wild, California's desert tortoise eats spurge, so it's a natural part of their diet, but I don't know if spurge grows in nature where Russians come from, so I would avoid it.
I'm no expert by any means but have oxalis all over my garden, trying to pull the green and red variety all the time from my flower beds and also have 3 garden cultivars (pretty big leaves and flowers) 2 green leafed and one purple. Those are beautiful and nonivesive. So anyway, I know oxalis when I see oneIf Pearly and Yvonne say it's oxalis, I have to agree. They've identified it much more often than me.

The plant top left is definitely not clover. It's oxalis.
