RFs can eat the greens most other torts can eat http://tortoiseforum.org/thread-5823.html what you want to do is add more fruit (i'd stay away from banana and tomatoes) and animal protein. You can check out www.Redfoots.com or www.turtletary.com for some ideas and amounts for a hatcling.

ALL would be a really long list of a lot of things that would be difficult to get locally.

I don't know what your background is, but http://www.redfoots.com has a simple diet plan that can get you started.

Http://www.tortoisetrust.org has another plan you can try or if you want a great book on all aspects of Red-foot care, try Mike Pingleton's book "The Redfoot Manual" from http://www.pingleton.com/redfoot/redfoots.htm
