I don't know what it is. However, what some do say on here is that they believe if a tort can eat it they will. If they aren't suppose to eat it, they won't. I have pulled some of mine, some I haven't, and he hasn't touched it. You can always go with the when in doubt, pull it:D. See if someone knows what it is.

It's a lambsquarter. They can be very tasty when young and are quite edible. I've used the leaves on hamburgers in place of lettuce:)
