Ok so my baby sulcata arrived yesterday and I have to admit being victim to the general misinformation available on raising these tortoises.
So I have been out and bought all the RIGHT stuff but now I feel like I'm back to square one kinda as I was so confident on his care and the research I had done, I thought I'd spoken to the right people etc as it's been in planning for over a year.
Anyway, essentially, I'm now doubting everything I thought I knew and I know this info must be available somewhere on here but I can't seem to find it. In my garden I have a dedicated 'wild' area which I've left gras and weeds to grow for this tortoise, occasionally mowing it but otherwise it's all natural. There are dandelions galore which I know are fine and also plantain but I just want to check some other things I now can't seem to find any clarification on before I let him have any time outside.
Dock
Raspberry leaves
Nettle
Ivy
hydrangea
Red/blackcurrant leaves
Gooseberry leaves
Ash tree leaves/shoots
Thank you in advance
