I feed my Redfoot:
  • greens everyday (I sprinkle a dried mix of flowers and plants on top)
  • veggies 2-3 times a week
  • fruits 1-2
  • mazuri 1-2 times a week
  • animal protein 1-2 times a week

I never feed just one item unless I'm feeding protein. I usually feed a mix of 2-3 items per day. My torts get greens everyday, fruit or vegetables about 5 times a week, Mazuri tortoise chow about 3 times a week, and protein once a week.

I feed butternut squash, mushrooms, zucchini, pumpkin, radishes, carrots.

I also sometimes miss/skip a day and don't worry about it.

I like your list.
However, I say to feed EVERYTHING on that list every day.
Redfoot can and do eat a gigantic variety of foods. So take advantage of it.
Feed what you have available in an amount that gets eaten in a few minutes and dont worry about a schedule
