I have them all over the place and I wanna know If it's safe for them to eat. I'm not a plant person but to me they look like clovers but I don't know if I'm right.

Yes, it is bur clover. Once the plant matures a bit more it becomes less tasty for the tortoises and they stop eating it. But it's quite ok for him to eat it.

I know this thread is answered but i feel like answering something. I'm pretty sure it's clover or burr clover, it is edible but it's not a torts favorite food.
