Cherry head diet

[CherryheadBob]

Just wondering if this is ok to feed dried veggies to a baby cherry head tortoise. I am open to any suggestions about food for my tort

Welcome to TFO!! Not sure if you were trying to post a picture of something but nothing posted. Check this link out for more info on the type of tort you have http://www.tortoiseforum.org/forums/redfoot-and-yellowfoot-tortoises.79/. Can you post pictures of your tort and of it's enclosure?

When you type up a post, if you look at the bottom right of where you type the text there is button next to post reply that says "upload file". Click on that and then you can select photos to post.

I don't see a problem with it. as long as just dried and not heavy in salt.

Aw - what a pretty little baby!

Welcome to the forum!!

It's ok to allow that dehydrated stuff to sit in water for 15 or 20 minutes to soften it up then feed it, however, fresh fruits and veggies would be much better for the baby. If you haven't already discovered it, the Tortoise Library has a whole bunch of good info about the redfooted tortoises for you to read.
