Is golden sedum safe for tortoises? It's other name is sedum adolphii. Also, is echeveria lime and chili safe? It kind of looks like hens and chicks, if it isn't that.

I use this sedum for my Spider Tortoises. They are not big eaters, but they have been eating it for years now with no ill affect. Additionally, it is on zero toxic plant lists, and the Curator of Reptiles at the Knoxville Zoo recommended any plant in the Sedum genus.

Good luck :)

I thought there was at least one sedum that is toxic.

Does any one know about echeveria lime and chili? It kind of looks like hens and chicks.

Good stuff. I must have overlooked Sedum acre. Rest assured I will keep my eye open for that one on this lists and in the stores now.

Thank you guys :)

Chilli is a "no feed" the Echeveria lime I couldn't find a reference for. Check anything you are wondering about at the tortoisetable.org.uk. They have a fantastic database of edible plants for safe tort feeding.

When I said the echeveria lime and chili, I meant one plant, sorry for the confusion. I couldn't find it on the tortoise table so asked here, but then later found it in their safe plant book pdf thing. It's a type of hens and chicks, so it's safe to feed.
