I've read a number of different things here and elsewhere on the internet regarding whether tomatoes and tomato plants are ok for tortoises. So, for gopherus specifically, what's the real deal?
Are tomato plant leaves ok --yes or no?
Is the fruit itself ok--yes or no?
I have a large plant in my fenced off garden and Bobo has made no attempt to access anything in there. However, IF the leaves are safe for him and would be a pleasant addition to the diet, I would gladly give him some. Probably not giving him any actual tomatoes since it produces so few and those are mine!
