mazuri for a hatchling leopard tort??

[mattramsfan76]

just wondering if this was a no no or was a good thing to feed. i am looking for the most varied diet possible. thanks

Pretty sure use mazuri twice a week and rest just outdoor weeds (make sure not toxic) use dark leafy greens like turnip leaves

Leaves and blooms from any squash plant, like pumpkin, cucumber, summer squash, etc...
Young spineless opuntia cactus pads

There are soooooooo many...
Dandelion
Mallow

Goat head weed
Cats ear
Nettles
Trefoil

Leopards eat a lot of succulents in the wild too. Spineless opuntia cactus, ice plant, red apple (the succulent ground cover)...
