I picked up some baby zucchini at the farmer's market today & the flowers were still attached to them. Before I toss the flowers, I figured I'd find out if I could maybe feed them to my RT since he loves other flowers. I haven't been able to find anything on the net about whether or not you can feed them the flower of a zucchini? I'm only curious about the flower not the actual zucchini because I think I read somewhere that the vegetable's too high in carbs & not to feed so I don't...but what about the flower???
Need to know if I can feed my tortoise this flower...

Sure you can. The occasional zucchini won't hurt him either
Actually you can feed your tortoise the zucchini, not really recommended, but you can. The flower should be okay.
Mine love squash blossoms! They are fine for them.
I agree. Flowers from any of the common squashes are fine.
