This weed started growing around my backyard, I have looked it up and I believe it’s called yellow pimpernel but I can’t seem to find it on tortoise table. Can anyone tell me if it’s indeed what I think it is and if it’s safe to feed to my Sulcata?

Looks like it might be edible chick weed except chickweed's flowers are white, not yellow

That’s what I thought they were at first but when I double checked i saw that yellow pimpernel is a look a like but with yellow flowers and I don’t want to assume I can feed it to my Luci just because it looks like chick weed. I used to have chickweed but after mowing the lawn this took over instead from the other side of the yard.
