Hi everyone. My baby leopard tortoise is doing much better now, thanks to your advise! I was just wondering if anyone new of any succulents other than opuntia that are good for tortoises. I try to give him as varied diet as I can. Thanks!

ice plant, sedum are good choices...as is the occasional aloe.

Red apple, elephant bush, jade plant, and I have at least 4 different types of opuntia. I also feed organ pipe cactus, after cutting the spines off.

I tried sedum, but discovered that some of them are great while others are toxic. Apparently there are lots of different types of "sedum".
