Neem leaves

[CharlieM]

Hello, Does anyone know if neem leaves from my tree are safe for tortoises? They claim to be safe for all pets and birds and be a wonder plant for curing disease as well as repelling insects. Would tortoises be totally different?

Thanks, Charlie

I had never heard of "neem" until a day or so ago when ( Kristina) posted about using neem oil as a flea preventative. I looked neem leaves up on the 'net and it is not toxic to dogs and cats. I doubt your tortoise will eat it, but it should be ok.
