: I've also read about feeding soaked, high quality grain bread to torts. In fact, I was the one who brought this to Justin's attention. I'll find the source later and post it.

Hi Merri,
I too would love to see any info on this.
My gut tells me that these animals weren't designed to eat grains as they are too high in protein and bread its self is starchy.
Depending on what kind of an animal we are talking about, I cant think of a single herbivorous tort that would be built for these kind of foods.
Just my ever so humble opinion tho as always.
Take care,
tcc :)
