Japanese Honeysuckle

[krh11b23]

It seems I'm getting mixed reviews on this plant. It is growing in my torts enclosure. Is it safe to feed? If not then is it poisonous? If so do I need to remove the plant from his enclosure?

If that is what you mean it's okay in the presence of other foods. Meaning don't "make" your tortoise eat it. I had an iguana that ate huge amounts of it. The flowers are liked well by tortoises and the leaves are okay as well. I feed it sparingly, as well as Cape Honey Suckle...

Sorry. I don't know this one. I know the Cape Honeysuckle that Will mentioned is safe for them to eat, but its not a favorite food of my tortoises. I mix in a few leaves or flowers now and then. I don't know anything about the Japanese honeysuckle.
