Can I give apple to my Russian as a treat

MPRC · Feb 7, 2016

Very sparingly as the sugars in fruit aren't easily digested by most tortoises.

That goes for all fruit! Even tomatoes and carrots, as a varied diet

When my wife cleans strawberrys I give the tops to the torts cause they get and like them And about 30 percent of them are green leaves .

one or two slices of an apple a month won't hurt I wouldn't feed more than that though

Strawberry tops are a good idea. Does anyone know if they can have strawberry vines? They grow wild around here.

I was under the impression they can eat most edible fruit foliage.

I feed mine the leaves from the plants. is that the non fruiting wild-type?

My sully adores strawberry tops and will also munch on the plants, though the plants don't seem to be one of his favorites.

Thanks guys, I won't actively seek them out, but I also won't banish them from the pens.

My russians like that as a treat too. I have some strawberry plants growing in the yard.

My tortoises love fruit, but I don't give them a ton.

Every now and then I'll give my Sulcata a 5lb bag of apples with no ill effects. I wouldn't feed it everyday day..
