Hi Jake. I have 1.1 Russians and they eat a lot. I have to buy food for them about every 4 days. How often do you feed them and how much? I only feed mine a small handful once a day each. For a cheap solution you could go out and buy a whole bunch of plants for them (but if outdoors dont plant it in the enclosure or you will be buying a lot of plants) and you could feed those to them. Hope this helps


: Hi I have a trio of russian tortoise. When I bought them I knew they ate alot, but I didn't realize how much they do eat. I was wondering where everyone gets there food for there tortoise, the supermarket is too expensive and I have run out of weeds in the yard. If I cant find an affordible way to feed them I will have to sell them.
