In Reply to: Can Russians eat grass & weeds? posted by Jesse on March 10, 2001 at 23:41:09:

Hi,
Russian Tortoises will eat a wide variety of vegetation...but don't nibble on "grasses" per se as much as other species do. For a complete list of Russian Tortoise specific plants...please see the link I've provided below. There you will find lists with proper as well as common names of the plants Russian seem to like the most, and has been compiled by ppl. who keep this species.

(I can only add one hyperlink here...so also check http://turtlestuff.com/enclosures.html#Russians

for some wonderful tortoise enclosure and garden photos for ideas on how to build an enclosure a Russian tortoise will absolutely love.

Hope this is of help to you,

Annie
