Feeding Research

Posted by Linda on March 13, 2002 at 17:38:03:

With all this talk of experimenting with foods that may or may not be bad for sulcatas, has anyone ever tried to find out what plants grow in their natural habitat? And if so do any of those plants/grasses grow in the USA? If not which plants/grasses would most closely have the same nutritional value as those in their native environment? I know my tortoise is doing very well on the diet she eats, but was just curious exactly what plants actually grow in their native range.
