: : Dandelion greens are good for them. Just don't feed them IceBerg lettuce. Lacks Nutrients. AlFalfa is a good substrate for them. Not wood chips. Woodchips can get mites and spread very fast. Plus they can eat the Alfalfa. Its good for them.

: : Good Luck!! (They love Romaine Lettuce!!)My webpage on tortoises is below.
