Hello!
I’m currently trying to rescue a Russian tortoise from the office I work in and want to start correcting it’s diet of one romaine lettuce leaf every few days. I have a garden on campus where I have TONS of radish greens (I eat the radishes) and have seen many people recommend this. However, the radish greens have lots of prickles and I’m afraid it could hurt the tortoise’s tongue or digestive system. Do people that feed radish greens to their Russian tortoises, do you scrape off the prickles? Or leave them on?
Thank you all for your help!
