Ok, I know I've seen this plant identified before, but I still have to ask....
What is this little plant with the pretty round yellow balls all over it ??? It is always all over the place and I just dismiss it as a weed....but is it edible for a tortoise?

I believe it’s Pineapple weed, a species of Mayweed. It is also known as Wild chamomile or Disc Mayweed. It is safe to feed in moderation.

Agreed. Let us know if your tortoise eats it! It doesn’t seem to be very popular.
