EJ. I see you keep up with things on the other side of the pond too :)

I'm staying neutral in this one, but do think that Justins proposed experiment has lead to some interesting reading.
Now we have to sift through all the various and sometimes conflicting articles and take what seems to make the most sense.
I'll be shaking up my torts diet, but still wont feed foods with a high oxalic acid content, or brocoli, peas, beans etc.
Still I'll be offering a larger variety of greens, more from the chicory family and just a wider variety in general.

And trying a bit harder to get more graze to grow, different grasses, wildflowers etc.
