Broccoli

[TiddlesTheTortoise2]

My tortoise LOVES broccoli but I don’t know how much to feed him!

Also, I feed him once a day and dust his food once every few days, do I need to feed more, less or anything like that?

That’s all for now!!

Don’t feed your tortoise Broccoli as much...
You only feed one time a day? You’ll need to feed as much as our tortoise eats. I feed mines 3-4 times.

As long as ur feeding the right foods.. allow him to eat as much as he wants

Oh f*** ? well it’s okay cause he didn’t get to eat too much but I’m just going to stop feeding that. Also I’m going to up the amount of times he gets fed to a few times a day! How much do you give yours per serving?

u cqn just feed once.. just put enough in there that will last all day.

They can be difficult or impossible to grow when you are trying to grow them. Some people just can't get them to grow at all.

Growth rate will vary with temperature, sun exposure, water, and soil composition.

Now that the weather is nice I put Dexter in his pen till about 4pm and only feed him dinner after his soak. He loves his pellets. But gets greens and cactus also. Hopefully if he is hungry he will eat “wild” red clover , mustard greens, dandelions, testifies grassetc

https://fdc.nal.usda.gov/fdc-app.html#/food-details/747447/nutrients. the worst aspect to offering broccoli is the poor C: P ratio. There is no published evidence that it creates a goiter, that is now what could be consider an old wives tale regarding giant tortoises that develop neck swelling.

Russians are broad leaf, and shrub tree leaf eaters first. Grass second.
