Hi all!
Although it's now almost the end of April I'm still finding it relatively difficult to find fresh food for my little russian tort. I give him dandelion leaves and flowers in moderation as well as deadnettles which are everywhere at the moment, but mostly the Florettes Classic Crispy from the supermarket. I want to give him more variety! I have found this plant nursery near me:
https://westlandsuk.co.uk/
which grows edible flowers like pansies etc and have asked them if they use any chemicals etc in which they replied
'You'll be pleased to know that whilst we aren't Tortoise experts you can rest assured we only use bio-control on our edible flowers. This is a safe way to manage any unwanted pests that may appear from time to time.'
Would these be safe to feed Lionel the tort?
Thanks for any help,
Charlotte
