I gave him one black Berry, peas (which he loves), cucumber and a pinch of chamomile. I hope I've done better at making him some treats

OP is in the UK and is unlikely to have access to cactus and chayote vines. Nor hibiscus although probably some good relatives are available, like hollyhock and mallow.He needs to be eating weeds, flowers and opuntia cactus. Pumpkin vine leaves and flowers are great, Hibiscus leaves and flowers, dandelion and clover. Okra, chocho vine leaves, purslane, watercress.
Ok thanks for letting me know. He is my first tortoise so I'm still learning the basicsHe needs to be eating weeds, flowers and opuntia cactus. Pumpkin vine leaves and flowers are great, Hibiscus leaves and flowers, dandelion and clover. Okra, chocho vine leaves, purslane, watercress.
Thanks! I'll watch his diet a bit more carefullyDefinitely better than last time! Since he's already had fruit twice this month and he'd been getting it for quite a while beforehand I'd give it a rest for a bit to make sure his gut flora is all in order.
