samsmom said:Living in northern WI I found a neat trick to feeding "green grass" year round. I take fresh cut grass and freeze in gallon freezer bags in the freezer. I have an extra chest freezer so this works for me. I take out what I need on a daily basis..and viola...fresh thawed good for you food...which is also very inexpensive!

I always feed my baby "salad style" of grape leaves, grasses, baby tears, rose leaves, red leaf lettuce nd other goodies I can get my hands on. Almost always he/or she will only eat the lettuce. After a while if he or she knows I won't budge and give more lettuce it will eat the other food. Doesn't always happen, though. I've tried so many different leaves and flowers they're allowed to eat and nothing. Hopefully it will get out of its picky eater phase soon.
Tom said:"Salad Style" is a reference to an actual bagged product that you can sprinkle on top of greens to add fiber to tortoise diets. It is basically finely blended grass hay.
