Planting and growing my tortoise's food

[Mochii]

Hi!

Haven't been here in awhile. I have a tortoise named Marley who has gotten bigger since last time I was here. And he eats more and more as day passes by haha

I want to start planting some grass and plants for Marley to graze on. Any suggestions on how to go about it? I need to know where I can get the seeds.. cheaper than better! I live in California, if that matters

Thanks a bunch!

Hi Mochii:

There are a several places on the 'net where you can buy seeds especially for tortoise food, but in actuality, you can buy any grass seed and plant it. I have used the seeds sold at carolinapetsupply.com and have been very satisfied with the quality and content.

There is also turtlestuff.com peaceful valley farm supply amazon.com. There are many places. You just have to shop around and find what you want at the price you can afford.

Oh thanks! I'm looking at carolinapetsupply.com

I looked at our edible list for tortoises and I don't see wheatgrass. Can they eat wheatgrass?
