Seed mix for Russian tortoise

[MyTortoise]

I'm thinking of buying a seed mix for my Russian tortoise, it contains these plants;

1. White clover
2. Crimson Clover
3. Trefoil
4. Plantain
5. Chicory
6. Milk thistle
7. Sainfoin
8. Tufted Vetch
9. Timothy Grass
10. Dandelion seeds

Is this appropriate for my tortoise and if not, can you reccomend one (that ships to the UK!) ?
Thanks

There's a ProRep seed mix available on Amazon, which I purchased a few weeks ago. I haven't grown them yet, waiting for a house move, where we will have a greenhouse!

The mix of seeds is specifically tailored to mediterranean tortoises' diets

I brought some dandilion seeds from these off ebay(?)
Search online for the tortoise table. (Amazing website) I live by it to tell me all the best weeds to get for my tort. There's so many edible weeds out this time of year in the uk. Go hunting for some, take a trowl or garden fork and get the roots. Free & ready right away
