: It's neat how things can be taken out of context.
: Fiber in tortoises is an important component. No more or less than protein or any of the other elements. I think we were discussing grocery greens and not fruits.
: My recomendation is that if you cannot access the natural stuff you can do just fine with grocery stuff if you focus on the dark leafy greens (no spinach). There is plenty of fiber in this stuff if you are selective. That's my point. (where did fruit come from?)

I'm no nutrition expert but I do know a Vet. in my area who raised two sulcatas from hatchlings to 100 pound monsters on grocery greens. They ate grocery greens and veggys year round and grazed in the summer months (about 5 months). The last time I saw them they had perfectly formed shells and were healthy and alert. Unfortunately they both died in a fire caused by a malfunctioning heater in their winter shed. I feed my Redfoots grocery greens in the winter months and they are very healthy. Of coarse I know their nutritional needs are much different than sulcatas. Just my opinion.
