Real quick please answer: Sulcata Tortoises!?

Do not feed them iceburg lettuce! Feed them dark leafy greens such as mustard greens, collard greens, and romane lettuce. Alfalfa hay is great, but I could never get my babies to eat it. Just remember they need a high fiber low protein diet. Carrots are ok, brocolli is bad. Fruits should only be used as a treat. No citrus! When they are babies, hydration is critical and sometimes a luke warm soaking is needed once a day. Just soak them for a few minutes in a very shallow bowl.
