Hi All,
I can special order cactus pads through my local food store but only by the 25 lb box. It's cheap at only $25 per box but I'm not sure the best way to store it as I only have a smaller 13 lb Leopard and 25 lbs goes a long way.
When I google freezing cactus pads, it looks like people scrape the spines off cut the pads into strips and boil for 1 minute before putting into freezer bags and freezing for up to a year.
Has anyone tried this for their tortoise or have any suggestions on longer term storage?
Thanks in advance,
Phil
