I am looking to make my enclosure bigger for my Hermanns. Are blackberry and Raspberry plants ok to be in the enclosure?

Well, yes and no. They shouldn't eat fruit, but they will if it's given or falls off the bush. Can you fence an area around the plants so the tortoise isn't exposed to all that fall? If a couple get in his reach now and then, that wouldn't be the worse thing, but if a lot is dropped where he can eat them it could cause problems/illness for him.
