My Russian Torotise seems to LOVE carrots! He gets all excited and comes "trotting" over if he sees I have a carrot. Many of the acceptable tortoise food lists have carrots as an "occassional" food. How often is "occassional"? Is one baby carrot every other day too much? He usually doesn't eat the entire thing. For the rest of his diet, I've been mixing organic spring mix with either collard greens or dandelion greens. I'm working on getting him some hibiscus, but it will be several months before he can eat it since I can't find anywhere that has organic plants. I also found some white clover seeds online and I plan to grow some of those for him as well. Thoughts on the carrots?
