: : diet sounds okay, except the green beans. i feed dandelion, collard greens, mustard greens (a favorite), carrots, squashes (several kinds) and some hay (they don't like the hay much). my russians are my smallest breed, but i gotta tell ya, i've never seen so much poop in my life! they outeat and outpoop my other torts! they are very healthy though and no worms. from what i've heard, everybodies russians eat quite a bit (do rule out worms though) feed them their normal diet one day and let them graze on grasses, clovers and hay the next (annies grazing mix works great) if you collect weeds from your yard, make sure you don't use pesticides. good luck.
