Is this food good for them?

[Digger&Blinky]

Hi i have been feeding my russian torts this for a while and i want to know if its good for them.

its fine as long as you feed them not strictly that if so you should at least mix it in with some greens and what not

That shouldn't be the primary diet. It is fine to supplement the diet with a tortoise pellet. I'd personally use Mazuri. Primary diet should consist of weeds (plantain, dandelion, chickweed). Leaves (mulberry, hibiscus, grape). Other good foods are opuntia cactus, grasses, and leafy greens. Here's a nice resource. http://www.tortoiseforum.org/threads/russian-tortoise-care-sheet.80698/

Hi. I do use that but I supplement it with greens. Or more, I just feed greens and give him a few of those once a week. My tortoise absolutely loves them which to me, is always a sign that something about them isn't right. like a child will always pick the pizza or sweet and not the veggies. But that's just me.
